Lauren Caitlin Upton, Ms South Carolina (& contestant in Miss Teen USA pageant) when asked why so many Americans can't find their country on a map:

'I personally believe US Americans are unable to do so because some people out there in our nation don't have maps, and I believe our education like such as in South Africa and the Iraq everywhere like such as. And I believe they should, our education over here in the US should help South Africa and should help the Iraq and the Asian countries, so we will be able to build up our future. For our children.'
