But I look at young people today and I see the luckiest people to have ever lived in any part of human history and in any nation in human history ever.
It's not a perfect union.
Nobody promised you a perfect union.
But what they did give you, what the founders did give us is an opportunity to work toward one centered around three perfect ideas that I don't think any governmental system or any political theorist has ever improved upon, nor do I believe they can.

And it's something that both Washington and Jefferson talked about, that because we are a nation founded around those three ideas and open to all who want to participate in it,
It's very different than a society based on race or religion.
The pluralistic idea of our country is radical.
And it doesn't get passed on by DNA.
It has to be relearned by each generation, and each generation has to commit to it.
And so I'm distressed when I read things like 13% of eighth graders are proficient in American history at grade level.

And I think American history is rip roaring
fascinating, full of people that any one of us can find a hero and a mentor in, and maybe learn some lessons about what not to do too.
And there are so many stories in our founding like that, again, about men, women, and children that maybe you don't know about.

Up to that point, people didn't know the names.
