This YouTube video (length 14:48) consists of the answers given by the 2011 
contestants in the Miss USA contest to the question "Should evolution be 
taught in schools?"

Two of the contestants answered the question correctly, and one of those two 
actually won the title Miss USA. Overall, however, these answers present a 
woefully depressing snapshot of the status of American science education as it 
manifests itself in a public discussion.
