I guess it wouldn't be as funny if they didn't edit out all the correct answers

I thought these answers were the correct ones

Americans are not stupid??? Well, Bush got elected TWICE, so there goes that theory.

No doubt, but still.... wow.

So Idiocracy was a documentary then?

Future docomentary.

Future docomentary.

Even prophetic, perhaps.

For the British one, the people that said the British flag only has 2 colors are correct. White is a Shade. Not to mention half the people they asked looked 5.

That was interesting and not unlike Jay Leno's street walking or whatever he calls it. I can understand that not many people are up on current events but a question like 'If you are running a race and overtake the second person, what positiion are you in?' is more of a simple logic question.

If you can't think of the answer to the race position question then you are stupid; if you can't name the current prime minister of England then you are simply uninformed, which is not quite the same thing as being stupid.

Still...under pressure many people don't do so well. How many sides does a triangle have? Can't you at least visualize a triangle for a split second before you answer? If the question were 'what is an isocoles triangle' I could understand if not many people get it, but how many sides?

I didn't think the British one was half as funny as the American video nor did it show people to be as dumb as the people in the American video.

To be honest I only included the link so I wouldn't be accused of anti-Americanism which seems to happen here if you're not a US citizen and you dare to mock or criticize the mighty U.S. of A.

And I'd agree with you on the 3/2 colour answer; both are valid answers depending on your perspective, after all, if someone paints 2 colours on a blank piece of paper it's not usually considered to be a 3 colour painting...

Oh yeah, and for the rednecks here before you get you knickers in a twist, an explicit qualification; dumb people exist everywhere.

Most likely not many of these. Looked like they may be the unregistered ones who don't care.

Hey, just be glad I didn't include my 8-track and Laser disc players in the lineup. It's even cooler to have an Atari 2600 lying around.

Not true. White is the presence of ALL color.

Not true. White is the presence of ALL color.

But by itself it's a shade.
