Okay, students, here's a test for your final grade in "Logical Thinking 101".

Examine the following propositions and determine whether they are logically consistent or not; if you argue they are not, identify the illogical issues or fallacies implied.

 1.  Americans do not have a clue about the world.
 2. The world is made up of the nations of the world.
 3. America is the strongest nation in the world.
 4. America is the richest nation in the world.
 5. America is not the most populous nation in the world.

Extra points will be given for brilliance.
