Made even better due to Miss Teen South Carolina but I don't want to say exactly how because it is funny :)

Miss Teen South Carolina

That is a perfect example of someone who has no idea how to answer that question.

You can hear the gears slipping in her brain...

Eh, give her a few years and she'll be in politics giving more catchphrase nonanswers.

I have not looked, but is it the incident regarding how (if I recall correctly) she answered the issue of a substantial number (/percentage) of Americans being unable to find the United States (if not another country) on a map?

Yep!

Ah, yes. I saw a clip of it as well as a follow-up on Countdown.

As painful as it is to not know the answer to questions, I believe that not realizing personal ignorance (intended or not), be it willingly or without actual awareness, is far worse.

Such a notion finally arose after escaping the confines of high school--perhaps during the start of college, when an impression was formed upon overhearing a particular conversation that students (and likely people in general) may BS through things if it is nothing more than a matter of performing the task at hand.
