Reply #13: Not JUST the youth.. [View All]

I think if you asked 20 people at random, the following questions, you would be stunned at the level of their NON-knowledge:

1. who is the speaker of the house
2. who is the vice president
3. was Carter a democrat or a republican
4. who is the secretary of state
5. how many judges are on the supreme court
6. was Ronald Reagan in the army or air force in WWII
7. how many senators are in the senate
8. who won the Viet Nam war
9. who was Joe McCarthy
10. who is Chris Matthews


BUt if you asked them the following questions, you'd probably get more right answers

1. Why did britney lose custody of her kids
2. What killed Anna Nicole Smith
3. Where is Survivor at this year
4. Who won last year's American Idol
5. Name princess Diana's sons
6. Why did Paris Hilton go to jail
7. What did OJ do recently
etc
