    ­I personally believe that US Americans are unable to do so because some people out there in our nation cannot speek ingles and as such didn't understand what you were asking them and everywhere like such as and I beleive that our education should help the US and the south africa so we could build up our future for our children.

    I loved that movie. And topic title is misleading. Of course you can't find us on a world map, we're on the internet. Now if you were looking for the U.S. ... then that's a different story.

    I dunno if I believe that statistic. They didn't poll the whole US, if you polled my highschool, everyone would get it right. But if you polled a public school, then I have no clue, you might get 1/5th. Or less, it isn't "Americans" it's "the dumbass hundred people we found to poll..." -_-...

    Lol, did you know how a poll works ? People who made that statistic (I hope) polled people of different ages, from different schools, etc.

    Your highschool + the millions other people who know where U.S. are on a map are around 1/5th of the american population.

    That is what the statistic says, and I believe it.

    There's irony in the fact that you read the statistic wrong yourself.

    "Your highschool + the millions other people who know where U.S. is on a map are around 4/5ths of the american population."
