A question for those a decade or two younger than me: When I was in school history stopped with the end of the Vietnam conflict. Everything after the fall of Saigon was still "current events." What I would like to know is what you learned in your history classes about the US involvement in the Middle East, and The September 11th attacks.

I know the history of these event as I live through them, and read the first draft of history in the news. I guess I wonder what the second draft looks like.

@antares basically Obama and newer is generally current, everything else is history-ish.

@antares oh and also, while Gov is not History, Citizens United is old enough to be covered in AP Government.
