Someone posted a person-on-the-street YouTube awhile back on the same theme.
It was real... and scary, and unlike our magnanimous friend from Kuwait,
I'm not interested in giving morons 'breaks' anymore.
Despite the glaring inefficencies and ethical barren-ness of the
American industrial-employment-educational system, it is NOT *that* bad.
You could only be that ignorant if you wanted to be.
...and in America, you are free to be ignorant and use it as an excuse
for... just about anything.

see why not, after running a live, public on-air survey), so perhaps
the whole thong is just made up – Rui

A Chicago , Illinois , radio station recently conducted a live survey
on a man called Barack Obama.
Question 1: Do you think Barack Obama is a dangerous terrorist?
Calls flooded to the radio station and the listeners unanimously, and
assertively, agreed that Barack Obama was a dangerous terrorist and
that the US military should relentlessly track him down until he was
killed.
Question 2: Which country is Mr Obama the President of? Is it Sudan ,
Algeria, Egypt or Saudi Arabia ?
Most listeners confidently replied one of these countries, with a
majority opting for Algeria . Obviously, the term Islamist was born in
Algeria . So where else could Barack Obama be living other than in
Algeria ?

/Well, it turns out that Barack Obama is the US Senator for Illinois
and Chicago (where the survey was conducted) is a large city in the
state of Illinois (in fact, it is one of the largest cities in the
United States). So if these wise and powerful Americans do not even
know who their own Senator is and consider him as a dangerous
terrorist, why are we expecting them to understand what is happening
in Iraq or Palestine , or anywhere else for that matter?/
