The image in the previous post contains Americans' responses to "where is Ukraine?" Only 1 in 6 were able to answer correctly. Read the article here:

The less Americans know about Ukraine?s location, the more they want U.S. to intervene

I would have loved to have seen a cross-tab comparing government or private school attendance.

Only 6% of Americans know where Ukraine is? Only 23% of college graduates? Our education system is truly a disaster.
