You beat me to it! My wife and I were watching last night and I thought she had a chance until she opened her mouth. I sincerely hope it was just nerves…….
What did she say? Bless that poor girl. She’s probably kicking herself in the brain today. Or, one would hope she knows enough to kick herself in the brain today. That said, her hair was really shiny.
If you watch it with audio muted, you can imagine that she’s talking about, like, hunger relief or the necessity of flossing or something. At least it makes you want to move to Canada less.
i personally believe that she is one of the 5th americans who can’t find the US on a map because she doesn’t have a map of south africa and the iraq or asian countries and such as.
As one trained in the SC educational system many years ago, and understanding the language and culture around these parts, her answer made perfect sense to me. It was the long way around to, “I don’t know”.
Then by all means lets send some of the U.S. Americans the maps they need to locate South Africa, Eye-rack, and the Asian countries so we…can…wait-what?
Sometimes the best answer is NOOOOOO answer.
OR, GOSH, may be Americans are NOT as smart as, er, rocks.
GO South Carolina.
(Hey, ah, isn’t, that, next to Iraq or South Africa, as such?)
My friend was really into pageants growing up. I went and saw her at many city pageants as well as the Miss CA and Miss America pageants. And believe it or not the 20 somethings would have horrible answers just like this poor young girl. Sometimes you just have a brain fart.
Boy does this make me proud to be from South Carolina!! Now that I think about it… do people know where Iraq and South Africa are on a map? She brings up a good question.
I so relate with this poor gal, and those who are jumping on her and making fun of her should remember their glass houses. It was clear to me that she was so nervous that while she was answering the question, she totally FORGOT the question.
I did this in moot court in law school.
The very fortunate difference is that my performance was not televised (allowing me to make the embarrassing statement about 45 seconds into my answer — “I am sorry, Sir, but I forgot the question.”
RAIN IT DOWN

And they say those competitions are about more than looks…

Boy does this make me proud to be from South Carolina!! Now that I think about it… do people know where Iraq and South Africa are on a map? She brings up a good question.
WHA? HUH??!!
Oh. My. That hurt to watch.
Wow, I am utterly shocked. I’m from SC, and let’s just say, not too proud to have watched that. Poor girl!
Oh, the horror.
Oh my…What a scholar! :-p
I guess I better go to the Walmart in South Africa to buy a map of Iraq to study the American states as such.
