You'll have to explain to me how a guy in Oklahoma having a passport and knowing the capitol of Hungary is relevant to nuclear policy and the threat of nuclear war. Your argument is all over the place. We're not all rich here in America, many of us weren't given great educations and have the money to travel. It isn't like Europe where another country may be within a couple of hours drive or train ride.

I also accept that we should do better in Geography. That'd be swell.
