I liked her articulate 'A lot of people in the US don't have that' comment. Don't have what exactly?

And what would the ideal answer have been anyway?

Because Americans are stupid? That wouldn't have got her many points with the judges surely?

Because the education system is crap? That wouldn't have gone down too well either, I'd have thought.

I'm not sure how she could have got out of that one unscathed.

Perhaps she should simply have said 'I don't know, but it saddens me that the US people don't take more of an interest in the world as a whole and their part in it'

Why are people always so afraid of admitting that they don't know something?
