but when 10% of our college graduates believe that judge judy sits on the supreme court, it's just not that funny. let me give you a feel for what some of the questions are on the american civics test. what country did we fight in the revolutionary war? when was the declaration of independence adopted? what are the first 10 amendments to the constitution called? these are not difficult questions. these are questions that every student should be able to answer before graduating high school. i think that when we were growing up, we don't even remember where or when we were taught these things. they were with our coaches, our scoutmasters. today, unfortunately the statistics tell the story. too many of our kids do not know the answers to these questions. but it is not all bad news. because like any national crisis, we have some wonderful people that have stepped up, organizations all over the country, to find a solution. one of those is the joe foss institute. i only got this idea that he is to dinner as richard dreyfuss was speaking to this dinner, with charles krauthammer. one represent

. >> woodruff: what's your take on judge gorsuch? >> well, judyrst of all, i agree with david on the assessment of him. he went to georgetown prep which is a rather exclusive local prep school, then on to columbia college, harvard law school, then to oxford. but the vice president made a point when he was interviewed by you in this show, he's a fourth generation coloradan, because his resume sounds very much like all the other justices in the supreme court, and as said we should have somebody on the supreme court that went to night school or public school, but, nevertheless, he does seem by temperament. and i will say, in an administration marked by total chaos and is unsettling in the way it's behaved and the impulses it's shown by its president, this was the exception. it was incredibly normal. they did it well. the announcement was done well. representative kelly is respected among democrats. ron bojane who is trent lott's advisor and spokesman, so that's been well done and he seems to be a quality product. >> woodruff: and you agree with david

>> it's a real surprise, judy. judgesuch, the nominee for the supreme court said it's disheartening and discouraging to have judgments attacked for their independence and integrity. this is not an abberation on the part of donald trump. he did it to judge curiel, the judge in the trump university charge case, because his parents were born in mexico and because i'm going to build a wall. he manages to personalize everything he felt brings chaos. he will not admit that he's ever made a mistake, that he's ever been wrong. that's what this whole thing is about whether they're going to have a new order. a new executive order would be an admission that the first order had been flawed, imperfect, illegal, unconstitutional and rejected, so he can't have that, so you're going to kind of do a double -- to me, it is reflective of this administration, it's three weeks in. people in the white house work hard in every administration. they get rewarded in psychic income, a sense they are involved in something bigger than themselves, th

>> it's sort of the bottom line for me, judy: it's not okay to criticize a judge as illegitimate or activist just because you disagree with the outcome. it's fine to say, i think that's the wrong ruling, i disagree with the basis upon which the ruling is issued, but to sort of claim that the judge has no right to issue that ruling, that to me crosses the line. >> woodruff: and professor kourlis, when president trump called judge robart a so-called judge and then he went on to talk about... i think he used the word "disgraceful" the way the judges conducted themselves or some of the judges conducted themselves at the appel et hearing on tuesday of this week, is that not stepping over the line? is that calling into question the very role that judges play? >> it is to me. >> woodruff: i'm sorry, i meant that for professor cassell. >> i think he's stepping over a line of decorum, but i'm not sure he's stepping over some line that invalidates the separation of powers. president trump has made it one of his signature i guess style points you could say that he's going to be very plain spoken some i
