Responding to American Stereotypes #6 – Education and Politics

I’m back with more responses to American Stereotypes. In this video I respond to a large comment on American Education and Politics.

I went on Facebook, an internet forum, and a blogging platform and asked various non-Americans about the American stereotypes and rumors they’ve heard or shared. I wanted to collect as much as I could and respond to them in a video. I give my own opinions at first, and then do a little research for factual information at the bottom of the video — that is, if facts are needed.

In this video I respond to the following statement:

“Let’s see… Many Americans are uneducated and follow around politicians like sheep. The education system in the US is the worst among the First World countries. Many Americans are also arrogant, self-centered, rude, think that they’re always number one, and over-patriotic. I mean, you see the national flag of the country per street block, compared to other countries around the world. Their news feed is only about things that involve America or against American interests.”

I will continue doing these as one of my American-based features in the future. If you’d like to contribute more stereotypes, feel free to leave a comment in this article or in the video’s comments section. It would be best if you’re not from the United States of America when adding stereotypes. And don’t forget to share this with your non-American friends so they can add some stereotypes as well!
