You Are a Smart American

You know a lot about US history, and you're opinions are probably well informed. Congratulations on bucking stereotypes. Now go show some foreigners how smart Americans can be.

Are You a Dumb American?

Oh dear. I really am just wasting time here, aren't I?

This is terrifying (and funny as hell)!

Obviously, this meme was developed by a product of the American educational system (you're opinions); or possibly by a 'foreigner' for whom English is a second language. Still, the unknown author likely recognizes that most Americans know precious little about American history. Most people of my acquaintance would fail this little quiz. I must go back now and put in all the wrong answers to find out how s/he scores the garden variety of respondents.

As for the findings, you are obviously not an American although I've been admiring your family's political astuteness from various quotes :-} in your LJ. I must also reluctantly point out that the phrase, "Smart American" has been an oxymoron since the last election proved that the majority of us are incapable of learning from experience.

That said, all Sentinel fic writers are hopeless optimists and therefore we must march into the meme sunset and hope for more hysterical (oops, meant 'historical'), moments like this one. Thanks for finding this!

Okay, if you put in all the wrong answers you get:

You are a Dumb American! You only got 0/10 correct. Let's hope you're really not from the USA. When foreigners talk about dumb Americans, they mean you!


Actually, when foreigners talk about dumb Americans, it's probably right after they put down their latest newspapers. History has nothing on current events!
