Which came first the chicken or the egg? Leads to… Which came first; Corruption, bad governance and conspiracies caused our nation’s people to deteriorate? Or did deteriorating quality of Americans allow those things to prosper?

I suspect if someone had answered the questions correctly they wouldn’t have made it into the video.

1) These videos are edited to show only the idiots.

2) The fact that such idiots exist is disturbing. These are “college students”? I’d very much like to know what they’re allegedly studying.

Everyone going to UCLA should be able to answer those questions. Except maybe the ones about the Kardashians.

I think that correct. But even so, it is unavoidable that those in videos like this -- of which there are quite a few -- have "Democrat" allegiance, because "Republicans...."

The one from New York thinking that the Pacific Ocean is on the east side of the United States is particularly disturbing. She has probably gone to the beach and been IN the Atlantic Ocean.

I agree the video creator probably edits out the smart ones.

Yet we are taking UCLA COLLEGE students here. 40 years ago it would have been a scandal if ONE of their students didn’t know where the Atlantic Ocean was or if the USA had a capital. Such things would have been inconceivable.

Still that’s what decades of leftist social policies are doing to our country.

It goes a long way explaining the government we have... and that we deserve.

Baseline democrat voters. A perfect illustration of why the left wants motor voter, universal vote by mail and legal vote harvesting.

These kinds of surveys mean nothing, absolutely nothing.

And here’s why. The results are cherry-picked. Correct responses are discarded. They’re no fun. Only incorrect responses are kept. So perhaps in some survey, 3 out of 100 people answered an easy question wrong.

You can be sure that only those 3 incorrect people will be shown.

Jay Leno did the same thing on his program decades ago. It was called "Jaywalking".

Yeah. Any third grader that couldn’t answer those questions 60 years ago would have been considered slow.

True, but nobody (from UCLA) should have missed those.

I remember that. I like Jay Leno. But what he did there was a disgrace.

I bet that if I asked Jay Leno 100 easy questions, he’d get a few of them wrong. No surprise there. No one knows everything. No one is perfect.

But then I’d run a video just showing Jay answering the easy questions incorrectly.
That would prove that you’re an idiot, right Jay?

In the days before viral video (we did have VHS), we did a similar stunt for an article in our senior year’s last newspaper. We asked fellow graduates mostly the same types of questions such as which countries border the USA. Also got some dumb answers or I dunnos. We left their names out, though, to protect the guilty. One girl asked in retort if the sun was always round, because the moon was only round once a month. I told her the moon was always round. She disagreed.
