Here is the article titled: Most Americans Can't Name One Supreme Court Justice.
A few selected results below:
"More Americans could identify Michael Jackson as the composer of "Beat It" and "Billie Jean" than could identify the Bill of Rights as a body of amendments to the Constitution."
"A third mistakenly believed that the Bill of Rights does not guarantee a right to a trial by jury, while 40 percent mistakenly thought that it did secure the right to vote."
You can read more but you get the picture, right?
