Survey: Can you answer this basic civics question that stumps most Americans?

Can you name the three branches of government?

If you’re able to list executive, legislative and judicial as the three branches of the U.S. government, you are one of just 26 percent of Americans who can, according to a new poll from the Annenberg Public Policy Center.

This survey's results show us that America is having an identity crisis, Glenn Beck asserted on Wednesday’s “The Glenn Beck Radio Program.”

“We don’t even know who we are,” he said.

We have all the information in the world available for us through technology. How is it possible that Americans are so ignorant about our own government when we have so many tools available and everyone is required to go to school?

“The generation with the most information is the least informed,” Glenn said, urging Americans to reach out to one another as we relearn the basics.

To see more from Glenn, visit his channel on TheBlaze and listen live to “The Glenn Beck Radio Program” with Glenn Beck and Stu Burguiere weekdays 9 a.m.–noon ET on TheBlaze Radio Network.
