I am NOT siding with her....BUT, having lived in London they are MUCH more knowledgeable about America and it's happenings than most Americans I meet!!! Our "charwoman" knew more about Nixon than I ever hoped to!!

I agree. I hate to say it, but MOST Americans are uninformed and couldn't care less about what's going on here and haven't got a clue about the outside world.
I'm not a fan of Paltrow and Madonna disgusts me, but it is true that the average guy on the street in the UK is more interested and eager to know about news topics of the day.

Both your comments are absurd. Given the likelihood that neither of you can accurately measure America's knowledge in comparison to that of other nations, your remarks have little to offer other than a slap to the face of America.
If you insist on deriding your fellow citizens, perhaps it would be helpful to point out that Paltrow's America is that of Hollywood and not the America the rest of us belong to.
