History of the United States II 1865 to the Present

[Ruddigore]

I am sorry that if my calling History "stupid" make you uncomfortable. What I meant is that I don't find it interesting at all.

Thanks for you kind advice though. But I don't like using IC, it just doesn't work for me. Do you think I need to read textbook ?

Uncomfortable, no. Wistful and a bit sad, yes.

Anyway, I agree with bkbarden that reading a textbook probably isn't your ticket to enjoying history. You are much more likely to get through it if you use some of the resources she recommended plus reading a more...engaging history book. I loved "A History of the American People" by Paul Johnson, but that's probably a bit more detailed than you were wanting.

No comment on a rap song for the presidents. I loved president trivia when I was 8 years old and just decided that I would memorize them all. That was certainly a part of my "prior knowledge."

Hope the test goes well for you.
