Non-partisan organization, PoliTech, a student organization from Texas Tech University in Lubbock ventured out to George Mason University with a very basic man on the street test: Can students identify three public figures?
To their credit, PoliTech appears to sample student from various majors, including an international politics major who had no clue who Joe Biden was, at least not when looking at a photo.
Joe Biden and Ronald Reagan got little to no love, but everyone recognized Kim Kardashian.
To weep over the future or invest in a bourbon distillery? Both?

It would be interesting to do a comparison and contrast with Hillsdale College. I bet it would be very illuminating and depressing at the same time.
What the hell does he have to do with who can use the bathrooms in the Student Union? Get real.
This is pathetic George Mason was the co author of the Bill of Rights, based on the ones he created for Virginia. Talk about rolling over in the grave and shaking your head.
Add to that the geographic proximity to DC of GMU.
Our so called institutions of higher learning have become diploma mills for any warm body willing to incur massive debt to get one.
I’m not bothered by someone who doesn’t recognize a picture of Biden. That’s not the same as not knowing who he is.
And these are the people probably who voted for Obama.
