-Are you smarter then an averageAmerican?

Be sure to look at the demographics at the end, really scary how little most of the population knows what's going on and vote!

Think you know what's going on??? Takes 30 seconds.

You can never underestimate the intelligence of the American people. This is appalling.

There are no tricks here - just a simple test to see if you are current on
your information.

This is quite good and the results are shocking.

Test your knowledge with 12 questions, then be ready to shudder when you see how others did.. Click below: It's short and sweet!

I got 11 out of 12; not bad for a foreigner.

YOU WIN !!!

(now tell the truth, did you google it or did you know? With 11 out of 12, I'd say you knew!) :winner1:
 
11 for 12 here -- I couldn't remember if we imported 1/3 or 2/3 of our oil, so I guessed between the two!

That reminds me, I need to change the oil in the Tiger this winter!
 
12 for 12, but I still can't find my car keys on a regular basis... :jester:

Gee, I do watch Fox ( and several others), but I didn't score 1000 like you - you the man! I only scored 100%

I missed sex and age...thought they were trick questions!! :crazyeyes:
 
Embarrassingly I only got 4 out of 12 and not ashamed to admit it. I do not read or watch the news and really have no clue what is going on. I care but I'm usually buried in an MG book or working on my cars. My TV watching is made up of Discovery and learning channels.
 
I guess not much about politics or da gubment. They are usually about the earth, solar system, machines or shows about cars. I'm no dummy just really never paid much mind to those things.
