being able to distinguish iran from australia is usually considered a requirement when being asked to vote for a president wholl have to sort out the mess created by its predecessor in some other country that borders iran http://www.youtube.com/watch?v ... kloFE&feature=related
hm i dont see the misleading bit... although id have tried to be cheeky and would have answered the cockpit of a jordan
unfortunately as it turns out senna was first at the time
That video is completely fake, and was made as a joke. Notice that the symbol in the corner says CNNNN... Not a real news channel, and clearly a parody of CNN.
the show is satire... the interviews are real... certainly they dont show any kind of fair cross section of the american public (wheres the fun in showing intelligent people?) but the point remains... even more so if one of your presidential candidates is too dumb to grasp the difference between sunni and shiites
Intelligence is NOT the same as knowledge. Not being able to locate cities on a map does not mean that you are unintelligent. Intelligence, which I even quoted a definition of above, is being able to apply knowledge, not just having the knowledge. To make an analogy, intelligence is like the processing power of a computer, while knowledge is like data that needs to be converted from one format to another. The more powerful a processor is, the faster it can compute data. Similarly, the more intelligent a person is, the more able they are to apply their knowledge. Getting a bigger hard drive does not make your processor any faster, now does it?
Haha, we do that :P
But our Geography teacher is a very attractive female with very large breasts, so as you can probably guess our attention is else where...
yes and no... every intelligent person is naturally curious and one of the most basic things to be curious about is knowing where the hell you are and where everybody else is
even if you dont know a lot of these cities unless youre very unlucky and get a lot of canada usa russia australia or other gigantic countries you should be able to easily get consistent 4000-5000s with the most basic of political knowledge
Being more intelligent can give you the means and inclination to aquire more knowledge so people who are more intelligent tend to also be more knowledgeable but one doesn't necessarily follow the other.
