Americans, taken as a whole, are pretty dim. It doesn't take much to confuse them.The unique thing about Americans is that they will fight tooth and nail for what they believe in. Over time, the ability to convince people of what they should believe in has grown, and in recent times, grown rather large.

You have to wonder just how much effort was necessary to for this conflation to be brought about.
