If you have ever wondered how the collection of idiots that we call US Elected officials can mess things up as bad as they do, this is probably one of the main reasons why. The test that they gave those officials sounds like the same test that the guv-mint gives all immigrants who want to become American citizens, ergo, how stupid are our elected officials?
At the end of the article, the organization who gave the test, ISI, said that "activities that dull Americans' civic knowledge include talking on the phone and watching movies or television -- even news shows and documentaries". In other words, watching the MSM is one way to completely suck all the knowledge out of your heads when it comes to American history and civics. Our last election was a very good example of this since the least-qualified candidate was elected. For any of you Obama supporters out there, you may not want to hear this, but he was elected just because he was black, not because he had any special qualifications (unless being lack is one). And liberals say that conservatives need to move past race.
