Look, that was only a few people, expect that to represent over 300 million? By the way, youtube is a bad choice to fall back on for info.

Actually, it was CNNNN, which takes the piss out of things.

And the one thing that shocked me the most, was that someone of old age doesn't know how many World Wars there have been.

Unfortunetly, there are idiots for every country.

Uhm, of course, but how many adults do not know who won the Vietnam War, or how many World Wars there have been? What about the religion for Israel?

technically, the vietnamese won the war because we pulled out. 2 world wars. jews.and i'm not even 15. Americans are not stupid... well not all.

Perhaps because they need to vote at some point in their lives?
Imagine the next scenario:

(President giving speech on TV): We have to attack Iraq!!
(Hillbelly watching TV): Iqak, isn't that on Mars?? Well, he gets my vote!!!He likes to eat hamburgers!

Really? Then explain to me how Bush got elected twice, if we are not truly a nation of morons. "All Americans are not like this", but i'd say it's clear that they're in the majority.

hahaha you think John Kerry would have been better for 04? lmao'

yep...John Kerry would have been better...much better...

and @ BK...yes, 51% of America is that stupid...sadly...

Unfortunately, this is false as reported by Snopes.

but it would explain some reasons why Bush did get into office.[/url]

i would've been able to answer the questions also, except about the coalition of the willing, the next country to invade in the war of terror, and locating iraq. i forget exactly where it is, i know in the middle east, but i keep confusing iraq and iran (in an unlabeled or mislabeled map) it took me a long time to remember that israel's major religion is judaism (and how they kicked the ass of their neighbor countries attacking 3 days after the country was "made" )

No! You, really? Unbelievable. Shocking.

And as the old line goes, Har Har.


I know you're probably sarcastic, but that was close to insulting. But, for a 'Special Ed' Graduate of an American Public High School in a provincial backwater, I'm still pretty bright, no?

i'm not reading this whole thread so maybe somebody already said this....

my favorite part of the video: guy scratches chin....

"ummmm, i'm thinkin' italy"

Unfortunatly they are.

Why does Unriggable doubt it? I don't.

haha yeah that was random.

Remember though, with this video, they took out all the people who answered the question correctly, and stuck the people who got it incorrect. all this video tells you is that some Americans do not know the answers to simple questions, not all

On the video: that guy who answered "Germany" to the Axis of Evil thing - it's not so absurd: he was talking about the Axis forces in WWII

And that guy who answered 'three' to 'how many world wars are there', that's not that stupid because some people consider the cold war and its proxy wars to be collectively put into ww3

Then he should clarify that. SInce not everyone thinks so.

And he might have. We don't know if that guy added why he thought there were three world wars. I bet if he was asked why he thought there were three world wars, he had an answer to that. However, which makes this guy seem more foolish? Him saying there were three world wars or him saying why he thinks that there were three world wars and it has a point of logic too it. Still, we don't know what is said afterwards, we just know that he said there were three world wars.

I'm sorry, that was a little close to insulting. And yes, you are pretty bright for a special ed graduate of a provincial American public high school.

It's Judaism, not Jews.

Iraq and Iran are right next to each other, Iran is just bigger on the right, and Iraq is smaller and borders Saudi Arabia.

aren't iraq and iran in the middle east, and isn't saudi arabia in arabia?
