oh there is a score breakdown on the site too. oga redsun confess your score. oyb pass am so you no get excuse I attempted the two i am interested in and i got them right,isreal shares no bother with iran,while health care cost more in america than any other developed world all because of mere greed,they have enough to around,yet they want their own citizens to suffer in the name of capitalism.I am not keen on american domestic affairs,i know Obama is at the helm of the affairs and he is doing good,trying to impose good over evil. Health is wealth,but in america it seems like wealth is health,they will rather waste trillions on war than to save the poor.New orleans katrina was another incident of america choosing biased tradition to sanity,they left them to perish because they were poor blacks-children,youths,adults,the very old,even pets,all were suppose to be american citizens. |

Tayo-D, From your post "12. About how many U.S. military personnel are currently in Afghanistan: 70,000 Incorrect 28", it seems you missed Question 12. |

SeanT21, The one question I found a bit difficult was "7. Do you happen to know if Iran and Israel do or do not share a border?". Recalling that Iraq is west of Iran was all I needed. |

I freaking failed that question. I thought they did share a border.  |

loll.
on a random note, It's funny that sometimes when I think about it, we know more about North America than we know about Africa.
maybe we should carry out a survey on how many Africans know if Mauritania shares a border with Mali. i'm guilty of accusing westerners of being ignorant about Africa but I think i'm more ignorant than I should be myself.
don't know if this applies to you guys as well.

I missed only the question about the troop number in Afghanistan  What's so freaking sad is the average American on the street don't even know or care to know the answers to those questions. |

Apart from RichyBlack, I think all of you should defer to my superior knowledge when arguing political issues from now on. How can a nucca in the UK know more about your politics than you? I must admit to guessing about the chair of the finance committee looking into the public health option, and also making an informed guess on troop numbers in Afghanistan.  |
