    And to think that most if not all of the people have the right to vote.

    Esp., scary is how many people replied that the predominant religion of Isreal is Islam (or actually most said Muslim).

    Well, I'm thinking they had to have asked and then selected for total losers. I imagine you can go anywhere in the world ask the same questions and by selecting for stupidity get similar responses.

    On the other hand. I'm willing to believe anything of my fellow "americuns". Maybe they just walked down the street and randomly asked passersby.
    Were they possibly all Californians?

    Wait, are you saying that those weren't the right answers?
    Just because you have the right, that doesn't mean it is right.

    CNNNN and the Chaser's War on Everything (made by the same guys) are comedy gold.

    I hope what you just said makes you feel better. You're probably a lot more satisfied with yourself right now.

    If they wanted the right answers, they should have paid for the right answers. We have professional firms to do that for us.

    Sad... but I suspect they would have gotten the same brain dead answers in New Zealand, Australia, and the UK.

    One interesting experience I heard about from some Australian students in the US was being congratulated on how well they spoke English and asked where they learned it.

    It was even funnier when I heard the exact same thing happen to an English student.

    My wife, and American, was amused.

    I have to laugh when Americans (via the Internet) compliment my husband on his English.

    Some of them have the same access that those in West Africa do. And by the appearance of some of the people they were interviewing....Not really making any excuses for anybody. But ignorance runs rampant in every country.

    Why would pointing out that the stupidity of people is not contained to one region of the world make me feel better? Hell, I'd be happier if it were only in one spot, it could be fixed then. As it is, the majority of the world is ignorant and is happy being so. I just have personal knowledge of West Africa, so that is the example given. I work within my personal knowledge, although I'm quite sure if you decided to go to any given country, you can find the local nook of ignorance there too.
