1. Tough one this time.

I went with Ben Franklin, but could barely decide between the first three.

[trotsky]

3. Given that millions of Americans need to be reminded of it daily,

I went with #3! (Plus I wasn't sure I was qualified enough to vote for #2. )

[Brainstormy]

4. Whaaaaaa, I want to cast four votes!

Exceptionally good ones this week.

[Curmudgeoness]

5. This one wasn't hard for me.

I had a giant grin show up when I read the first one---simple, elegant, and so true.

[bvf]

6. Science always deserves a shout-out

especially given the pervasive attitude among so many that there are things that science can't explain.

That becomes less true every day, and people who cling to supernatural beliefs using said attitude as justification are essentially wallowing in ignorance.

Big vote for #4.

[AlbertCat]

8. Ditto

All are good.... but I went with the one that I think effects most people on the planet. The fact that people think science is just some kind of opinion will sink us all.

[Mbrow]

7. Tough one, I had to go with #3, I'm a fan of the constitution.

[Promethean]

9. I personally love the idea of the Dunning-Kruger effect.

However the meme is too long. It had made its point at "Basically they are too stupid to know they are stupid." If it had ended there it would have had much more impact. Instead it dragged itself down by trying to explain itself and by providing what is clearly a made up statistic (clean multiples of 10 and no reference to a study).

10. I wanted to go with the science one
