The word "many" leads me to believe that this is the author's opinion without substance, and even with evidence at best ad populum.
I recently read "Lies My Teacher Told Me" by J. Loewen [1], and it hits on just this, being the "heroification" of American leaders. I wouldn't doubt that this is what was the popular teaching in K-12 US.
