how scary...

This video of an interviewer on the street asking "who should America invade next?" - and the inability of interviewees to identify countries on a map (he mislabels Australia as Iran, Korea, etc. and they go ahead pointing to the island continent as Iran/Korean without correcting him) Of course, it could be that these are actors... but the notion that I can believe people can be that clueless is what scares me more. Heck, there's even a game show that focuses on the ignorance of everyday American passers-by for comedic effect.
