There is statical evidence that both racists and conservatives have a lower IQ on average.
The winner should probably be based on how well she represents the average American woman

What can be done to bring these people into line? When does "free speech" = freedom to offend, or be ignornat and hateful?

The problem with "Murica" is that many are embracing the stereotype. And while pride and nationalism are a good thing, many see bigotry as part and parcel of nationalism.
Oh stop it. That's absurd. Any alleged 'statistical evidence' is obviously biased. I could easily go out to the inner cities and poll a bunch of loser 'go on Springer or Maury' type minority left wingers and say that the left has a lower IQ on average. It wouldn't be that hard.
A 50 Year Research and Studies have found that Racists have low IQ's. Studies going back over 50 years have repeatedly arrived at the same conclusion -- racists have lower IQs than non-racists. The average intelligence quotient (IQ) of all members of the human race is 100 on the Stanford-Binet scale, as illustrated in the bell curves in the figure below.
Satoshi Kanazawa, an evolutionary psychologist, says "evolutionarily novel" preferences and values are those that humans are not biologically designed to have and our ancestors probably did not possess. In contrast, those that our ancestors had for millions of years are "evolutionarily familiar." Kanazawa argues that humans are evolutionarily designed to be conservative, caring mostly about their family and friends, and being liberal -- caring about an indefinite number of genetically unrelated strangers one has never meet or interacted with -- is evolutionarily novel. Data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health support Kanazawa's hypothesis. Young adults who subjectively identify themselves as "very liberal" have an average IQ of 106 during adolescence while those who identify themselves as "very conservative" have an average IQ of 95 during adolescence, Kanazawa says. Young adults who identify themselves as "no

Funny how peeps dont like science when it does not suit them.
AFRICAN AMERICANS currently score lower than European Americans on vocabulary, reading, and mathematics tests, as well as on tests that claim to measure scholastic aptitude and intelligence. This gap appears before children enter kindergarten (figure 1-1), and it persists into adulthood. It has narrowed since 1970, but the typical American black still scores below 75 percent of American whites on most standardized tests. On some tests the typical American black scores below more than 85 percent of whites?

She's not! She's horrible. If that's the best America can do then they must be truly down and out.
As for you indoctrinated politically correct commie cronies,
try going to India and winning Miss India if you're white or not of the right caste - the most bigoted system in the world.
Yet they come to our countries and demand to be equals!
Nina Davuluri will also speak at a news conference Monday at Boardwalk Hall, where she became the first contestant of Indian heritage to win the crown Sunday night.
The 24-year-old native of Syracuse, N.Y., wants to be a doctor and is applying to medical school, with the help of a $50,000 scholarship she won as part of the pageant title.
Davuluri was born in Syracuse, but moved to Oklahoma at age four then to Michigan at 10. Six years ago, her family moved to Fayetteville, where her dad is an obstetrician/gynaecologist affiliated with St Joseph’s Hospital. Davuluri’s degree from the University of Michigan is in brain behaviour and cognitive science. She plans to become a physician and says she would love to attend Upstate Medical University.
