Americans are not stupid

[Renji]

It's a good thing that I am not an American to think of having the same problem!

That's usually true, but Americans are special. For example, 83% of us are below the national average when it comes to math and statistics.

just...

Probably not too different than the responses from a random selection of people in other countries; however, the disturbing thing about this is that the votes these people cast carry just as much weight as ours. I guess we just have to hope they don't exercise their right to vote.

The thing that is hidden here is editing. No one is saying how many people the interviewer talked to. Perhaps to get that 6 minutes of brilliance (humour that is) they shot 8 hours a day for a week. Then off to the editing room to delete all the correct responders. Who knows.

A much better result or indicator is when they say something like, "we asked 300 people, and 185 responded correctly."

im sure the people in the clips are a small percentage of the people that were actaully asked questions. funny nonetheless that there exist people like that

Why, juxtaposed footage of random questions to all the seemingly uneducated people on a city block about topics they'd have no interest or knowledge in since it doesn't pertain to them. Not to mention, he wrote the name of those countries on the Australian continent. Pretty deceiving test there. Most people aren't artists and do possess strong visual intelligence, especially when we really have no need to look on a map for any reason. But all that aside, I'm particularly not impressed with the video. Half of the people seem like they can barely understanding the phrasing.

Reminds me of this joke, ( its a joke so plz take it as one, americans)

" Bush invites obama and clinton for a secret talk in a bar to discuss something of grave importance. They all sit down as obama and clinton ask bush what is it about.

He leans forward and says' Well, we're about to kill 14 million muslims and a beautiful american girl."
'What, how!!' the two exclaimed.
Bush says,"Its all been arranged".
Obama goes ' But what do we tell our people!! they will never support this decision and how will we justify it?'
Clinton" And who is that beautiful american girl, I and our people cannot agree with this, can she not be spared??

Bush goes, I'll show you. He calls up the waiter and tells him the same. The waiter screams in horror and says " What!!!!but why kill a beautiful american girl!!! what has she done!!!! why would you kill a beautiful innocent american girl!!, this is insane!!!

Bush turns to the two listening and says, 'See! I told ya, nobody is going to give a damn about 14 million muslims, she has to go with the plan.'

A top official walked into the Oval Office to inform President Bush that a decisive victory had taken place. He stated however that we had lost 3 Brazilian dead soldiers. Bush looked horrified. He asked how many a brazilian was.
