One of my very first experiences after moving to California about ten years ago was talking with a junior at one of our esteemed UC schools (and very proud he was of how, uh, "selective" said school was) on the Fourth of July... here's an almost direct quote:
"So, what's the Fourth of July about anyway? ...the signing of some peace treaty, right?"
And, yep, he was English-speaking, born and raised here...
