Yeah! Honestly, I don't know all of mine unless they've been in the news a lot, usually for scandal or ridiculousness. And I actually try to keep up somewhat. But keeping a roof over our head, food on the table, and saving for college (my daughter) must take precedence. Again, I could probably pick most of them out of a list. I looked to see who won elections after they were done. But I can't name them all off the top of my head.

Thinking about it, I can only name 3.

I actually know more names of leaders in African nations than I do my own representstives. Can say the same for Asian nations. Same for European nations. Probably the same for South and Central America but they tend to be a lot more politically unstable, so I’d have to check and see if who I think is leader, actually still is. I know there was a recent assassination attempt on the Argentinian VP.

Off the top of my head, I can’t name a single leader of any island nation or really small nation anywhere. And it’s not that I’m entirely disinterested, it’s just that with what limited down time I have, I’m looking for ways to finance my daughters college, studying the water issue here in Arizona, organizing and educating against the abortion bans, and working with groups to find the missing, especially the Indigenous missing… stuff like that.

So geopolitical study just isn’t a priority.
