I heard hear from Rick Santorum that the University of California doesn't offer history courses in 7 or 8 of their schools. Those fucking elite California liberals!
University of California System Doesn't Offer History Courses

That is complete bullshit. Just go to the websites of every University of California campus. You will see tons of U.S. History classes offered at every school. I don't understand why people listen to lies at face value. Check the authority, verify, before repeating such nonsense!

Wikipedia IS reliable.
I love how Ricky boy just spews out dumb comments and no one calls him out on them. Rachel Maddow talked about this on her show, only one school does not offer a history class, and that's because it's a med school. I would look for the link, but to lazy right now. 
And yet, there are all those people willing to vote for him to be president. Not just sad and pathetic, scarey as hell.

"Anybody but Obama" is their motto. Must just be blind hate, because Sanitorium plans to turn the uS into a theocracy, which should scare people much more than "socialism".
That would require a functioning rational brain, which most of them don't possess.

Fuuuuck that shit!
what he specifically said was that they don't offer American history courses.
That is false. I just looked on the websites of several of the schools, and all offer US history in some form or another. Cal Berkeley, arguably the most "liberal" of the UC schools, has many courses in US History, although they mostly appear to be socially oriented....

Has nothing to do with "textbook publisher" anything. What the hell does that have to do with anything? Textbooks and encyclopedias are two different things entirely. One is a teaching tool, the other is a research tool.
Professors themselves know that Wikipedia is not a good source to cite from. Why?
Wikipedia is NOT reliable. I could go on there right now and change an article. It's fine if you want to do some basic research, but if you want serious research, it sucks. Why?
1-It is not written by subject matter experts
2-It contains TONS of biased articles
3-It is OFTEN inaccurate

Wikipedia itself has an article describing its inaccuracies.
