Obama doesn’t know his American history

How can Obama stand before a crowd of people and have the gall to tell them that small businesses did not start by the people, but by government? This is another example of how much he knows about the history of the United States.

He tells us the roads were built by government. Young people may believe it, but my grandfather built roads for stage coaches and logging roads, of which some are still in use today. He was paid by private landowners, not by government.

Maybe we need to bring back American history into our schools if you can find any teachers that know anything about it. Obama has no idea.
