[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Please stop responding to this thread.  It's just a stupid attempt to attack on female Democrats.  Don't feed the troll.[/quote]

It’s an honest thread...the data is there.

It shows how uneducated people are.  An the fact most college educated cannot point to Iran is even more disturbing.  I fully get some backwoods inbred - but a “college” educated person?

Honestly I know enlisted military members with more geopolitical knowledge of the region than I do college educated armchair politicians.  [/quote]

The data supports the assertion that Americans are generally terrible at identifying other countries on a map.  They also tend to suck at identifying the states in America.  This old news.  The data does not support the assertion that female Democrats are the worst.  Democrats were no worse than Republicans (27% vs 28% with a margin of error of 2% = no difference).  Beyond that, you'd have to be careful about other conclusions.  The data does not indicate the breakdown of the number of people polled in each category.  For all we know, the men were better educated as a rule in the sample and that is why they did better than women in the sample.  You get the idea.[/quote]
