Too bad I don't have access to these video from work. I feel sorry for the girl and the general lack of education in such an advanced country however.

Recent polls have shown that 1/5 of Americans can't locate the USA on a world map.  Why do you think this is?
 
 Her Answer:
"I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, uhmmm, some people out there in our nation don't have maps and uh, I believe that our, I, education like such as uh, South Africa, and uh, the Iraq, everywhere like such as, and I believe that they should, uhhh, our education over here in the US should help the US, uh, should help South Africa, it should help the Iraq and the Asian countries so we will be able to build up our future, for us."

I think most contestants have prepared answers relating to current events.......from what I saw on TV it looked like she was working her response into one of her prepared answers

[P.C.]

She would have done better to simply answer......There aren't enough words to express how sad this makes me feel.

  At the very least she wouldn't have looked like a buffoon.

[Michel]

Oh my god, I finally took the time to check the video. Worse than I thought !!!
