Miss Teenage South Carolina Asked the Following Question:

[Electric Church]

Question: Recent polls have shown a 5th of Americans can’t locate the US on a world map. Why do you think this is?

Here’s her exact answer, written to the best of my ability, without any typos:

“I personally believe that US Americans are unable to do so because that soma people out there in our nation that don’t have that and a, I believe that are a education like such as in South Africa and a Iraq everywhere like such as and I believe that they should that a are education should over here in the US should help the US or help South Africa and should help Iraq and the Asian countries so we will be able to build up our future for us."


This is very sad. This is not a laughing matter.:(

dude who cares, its not like she needs to be smart and such to get far lawl. This has been making rounds on the internet so im sure its already been posted, but anyways. I feel bad for the girl really, i do. Maybe she'll take some "lovin" and "comfort" from someone who feels bad for her whilst everyone else is making fun of her :p .

[Electric Church]

I care

"that don’t have that and a"

i believe was something about them not having a map... vid is on youtube. i find it hard to believe a 5th can't find it, even if those surveyed were all from SC

Our education system is a joke. Instead of encouraging kids to be the best and raising the bar to challenge them, our system dumbs down school to cater to the lowest common denominator.

I'm going to be home schooling my kids... theres no way I'm going to subject them to the stupidity of the public school system.

This girl is going to be a freshman at my university this year. Now I feel dumb.

Sorry, but the radical femnist in me is just busting to get out here. This is what happens when society teaches girls that beauty is at least as important, if not more so, than brains.

sniff sniff

She's claiming that she only heard one or two words of the question then froze up trying to ad-lib.

There's probably SOME truth to her claims, but she's also probably not all that bright.

She could definitely use a healthy dose of intelligent DNA. "I got a 1330 on my SAT's! We HAVE to do this for U.S. Americans!"

Is that on the old or new SAT? They've changed the max score from 1600 to 2400, so a 1330 now isn't great :p

Further evidence of the class warfare and segregation that is going on in this country... people who have no knowledge or job skills making a rediculous amount of money simply because they or their parents indebted themselves for YEARS to put them through so-called "higher" education.

I'm so glad all of you have had the opportunity to speak eloquently on a national stage.

[devil21]

Nobody is saying anything about speaking eloquently. I do expect most people would be able to at least form a complete sentence and not babble incoherently then smile like they just did a great job.

Well, she was on the Today show and did a much better job. So, your expectations have been met.

[SeanEdwards]

When you are female and look like that girl, you don't need to speak eloquently. :D

[Original_Intent]

if she is very smart she will laugh at herself all the way to the bank - think Jessica Simpson "But is it chicken, or is it fish?"

[Mesogen]

Yes, but Afghans have still beat the English and the French into space. OK?

She was referring to the Soma in Brave New World.

That lady was a real moron.

Why can't they? Because our educational system is garbage. If we privatize education, then maybe people will finally see results with free market competition. The educational system of America is systemically creating a nation of semi-literate zombies.
