Cause the average American has no clue how their own government works, let alone the SCOTUS.

Funny how they weren't taught that in their government-run schools...
Well a significant part of the government's power is the people's ignorance of it's workings.
Thoroughly true. I can't find the actual quote, but I've seen it said here before: the government still never teach you what you need to know to overthrow it.
