Cmon guys, what do you remember from the 20th century. Most Americans are historical amnesiacs especially when it comes to cultural events.
Wihout looking it up
Do you know the name of the most famous singer in the US who lived through the ‘06 quake?
What were the causes of the real Great Depression of 1873 (longer and deeper than Herbert Hoover’s)?
What was the most popular song of the Civil War? Hint the tune came back in the 1950’s but I am asking it;s Civil War era name when it was #1 for years.
We will remember Barack Obama’s election but will we remember it like Lincoln’s or FDR’s or Nixon.
Current popularity has little to do with longetivity.
