100 Greatest Americans
John Hawkins at Right Wing News has posted his list of 100 Greatest Americans. His list is in response to the abysmal list put together for a Discovery Channel special program. The Discovery Channel's attempt failed because they just asked people to vote without any requirement that they know anything. If you've ever watched The Tonight Show when they interview the man on the street you understand why that doesn't work. The average goof on the street will name current celebrities. I started to list the most egregious mistakes on the Discovery Channel's list but quickly realized I'd be copying half their list. They included Ellen Degeneres, for goodness sakes. If that doesn't invalidate their list I don't know what would.
