People Can Be So Critical

Sarah Palin didn’t know that Africa was a continent.  So what?  Who knows that kind of stuff?  And is that really necessary knowledge to be VP?

    How do you not know that Africa is not a country? some people are saying it’s a joke, that’s a very odd joke! imagine her infront of the united Nations not even knowing where Nigerians are from? Africa you fool! how dumb, and to thik that 48 million Americans voted for this woman is very sad and scary!

    The writer was so clearly being sarcastic that it makes me wonder if the entire rest of you are stupider than that disease Sarah Palin.

    I really don’t mean any offense by this comment however in my experience (travels and of friends in the US), it’s typically American’s who are not knowledgeable of geography outside of their own country. I’ve been told that most American’s are not taught geography outside of their own country, therefore, I’m not surprised at all that Palin did not know that Africa was a continent.

    @Kelly

    I hope it was a slip of the tongue, but Americans are not known for their geographical knowledge.

    And hey, don’t underestimate the intelligence of all of this blog’s readers: I just went through the letters of the alphabet and named 33 African countries, thank you. Lame for anyone with a good education, but not bad for an American, eh?
