You don't remember that page from America (The Book), eh?
Here's an article.
John Stewart actually has a faux Civics Class textbook: America: The Book. Don't let it fool you though, while packed with humor it actually does a surprisingly good job at explaining things.
I think a great primer for understanding the way our government works is actually The Daily Show with Jon Stewart Presents America (The Book) Teacher's Edition: A Citizen's Guide to Democracy Inaction .
It's funny as hell and actually does teach you about civics in the US.
America (The Book) it's a little dated, but the best textbook on the subject I've ever read.

It's a satire book written by Jon Stewart.

Finally, if he doesn't have a record player, that could be a big item purchase. You can get a solid record player for around $100-$125. Go for one that doesn't come with built-in speakers but don't go so expensive as DJ-style turntables. (Audio-Technica is a great brand for middle of the road players. I've been using a $125 Audio-Technica for years and it's perfect.) Then, get him a carbon fiber brush around $10 (e.g. http://www.amazon.com/Pfanstiehl-Deluxe-No-Static-Record-Cleaning/dp/B00D8DYQM4/ref=sr_1_sc_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1419354469&sr=8-1-spell&keywords=vinyl+brush+carbonfiber) and one or two records he would like. (If there are no good record places in the mall, try Hot Topic. They will sometimes have cool records.)
Definitely a pun, and a fairly old one, probably popularized by this book: http://www.amazon.com/Stewart-Presents-America-Teachers-Edition/dp/0446691860#reader_0446691860
