I'm quite certain that some of them do know about Thomas Jefferson - which is why those in the Texas School Board have decided to "tone down" exactly what role he had in American History. Perhaps they just couldn't find enough misjudged quotes to link him to being a "Christian Founding Father." Pricks.
