Question: Recent polls have shown a fifth of Americans can't locate the United States on a world map. Why do you think this is?
Miss Teen South Carolina: "I personally believe the U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, uh, some, uh...people out there in our nation don't have maps, and, uh, I believe that our education like such as South Africa and, uh, the Iraq everywhere like, such as and...I believe that they should, our education over here in the U.S. should help the U.S., err, uh, should help South Africa and should help the Iraq and the Asian countries, so we will be able to build up our future for our...

All those pageant-types have always, and only, skated thru life on their adorability (you can just sense her adorableness!! See how adorable she is?! She's like a china doll you want to spank and screw!) and this culture encourages it. So, really, she's, like, culturally important. Y'know?

Oh, and some people in our nation don't have maps! Which is certainly PC of her.

I've also heard that one fifth of Americans still think the Sun revolves around the Earth.

I know there are some very stupid people out there but I don't know if it is that high. Maybe a seventh.

Just curious as to how this is different from people believing in creationism, disbelieving in dinosaurs or thinking the moon landing was a fake.

Probably all the same people but the tin foilers are only found on the internet.

We nee to find out her address and everyone everywhere should send her maps and globes of the world... fucking idiot.

There are smart people in South Carolina? I don't believe it! Next, you're going to tell me that someone from West Virginia is actually smart!
