Miss Carolina Explains Her Now Infamous Answer

This weekend, a video of beauty pageant contestant Miss Carolina went super-viral on YouTube.  The girl tried to answer a question about Americans not knowing geography by fluctuating between a rambling non-answer and rehearsed keywords like "education," "future," and "South Africa."  Watch and see:

However, in the interest of fairness, here's an official statement by Miss Carolina herself, explaining her answer:

"Hi, I'm Miss Carolina.  So... I know a lot of you, uh... think I'm not very intelligent... uhm... when responding... to... stuff.  However, I am, uh, incredibly smart... because I believe in helping children, uh, who don't have money... uhmm... for... tools... for... their education... vouchers....  I also feel like global warming, which is a real problem, comes from, uhmm, you know, when the greenhouse... plants... we need... to stop them.   If I had... uhmmmmmm... more research to stop the AIDS virus... I'd support it.  That's how I know how, I, Miss Carolina, would respect all people -- so why can't we... uhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... all...  Hillary can be our next president, even though she's a woman.  Thank you."

Well said.
