I could, but I passed when I was born here.

[DenverChief]

17 out of 24....yet I still failed.

:spock: there are 30 questions

[DJay23]

26

I can never get all the, "Which obscure amendment says xyz and what year was it ratified" questions.

[Sam Hall]

I started 19/20 then ended with 23.

[Otter]

Q4: Who has the ability to declare war?

Can't the president declare war without the approval of congress for 30 days? Or did somebody write this on my forehead while I was passed out in college?

19/30

EDIT: FU Bush

[Gonzo]

24

[big nasty kcnut]

27 - got tripped up by Eisenhower. Though all were wrong because of knowing Abeline was Eisenhower's home town, but he just grew up there.

[kepp]

I passed my citizenship test when I was born.

[JohnnyV13]

30 of 30...then again..i'm a lawyer

[Hammock Parties]

['Hamas' Jenkins]

29. The amendments not ratified got me.

[unothadeal]

16

[Bearcat]

19

And I failed? WTF?

It's not like public school.. you have to actually do well to pass.


Hmmm.... we expect more out of those coming into our nation than those who are born here.

[kcxiv]

bah, 19.

[Adept Havelock]

28, I missed the amendment lowering the age to 18, and the year the last one was ratified. :banghead:

[DenverChief]

28, I missed the amendments not ratified, and the year the last one was. :Banghead:


yea I actually slipped up on the term limits for senators I was thinking how long their terms were not if they had term limits :shrug:

[Braincase]

I missed two (score 28). Missed English as the official language, and the number of amendments.

[ClevelandBronco]

28.

I didn't know that how many amendments proposed by Congress hadn't gotten enough states' votes.

Didn't know which president was born in Texas.

EDIT: Too much spoiler information the first time around.

[morphius]

25 - number of amendments, last time, how many not, Texas and number impeached.

Of course I really did just guess on all 5 of those...

[Frazod]

I got 27 out of 30. Got seriously tripped up on some of the Constitution questions.

Admittedly, I guessed correctly on which president was born on Texas.

[Chieftain58]

20

[Joie]

25.....missed Rep's full term, # of amendments, ratified and current amendment, year last amendment ratified, and # of Presidents impeached (which I actually knew).

[SCTrojan]

[RealSNR]

28/30.

For years I've thought it was Nathan Hale who said "Give me Liberty or give me Death." Guess I've been wrong for years.

Besides that one, I missed the Eisenhower question. Who gives a shit?

Hale's famous quote was (I'm pretty sure) "I regret that I have but one life to give for my country."

Ditto.

[Frazod]

The wife got a 19 and failed. I told her to get the f#ck out of the country.

As soon as the laundry's done. :D

[KCFalcon59]

29, I missed the question about assassinations.

[KCFalcon59]

29. The amendments not ratified got me.

I was lucky, that was the only one I guessed on.

[Fishpicker]

26/30 ....damn culturally biased tests. I missed 4 of the last 5. the rest of the test was nearly too easy.

[Sam Hall]

29, I missed the question about assassinations.

I could've swore that three have been assassinated, so I picked 4 and got it wrong. Kennedy, Lincoln and another in the late 1800s.

[ClevelandBronco]

Garfield and McKinley.

[jAZ]

I struggled with these two... ;)

Who is the current President of the United States? Bill Clinton Colin Powell
George W Bush Dick Cheney






Who is the current Vice President of the United States? Bill Clinton Colin Powell
George W Bush Dick Cheney

[Logical]

I got a 26 not bad but not sterling

[JohnnyV13]

Though I did get 30 of 30, I have to admit, I got lucky on some guesses. I guessed on the unratified amendments.

I knew English was not the official language by federal law. I knew bush was born in conneticut but Eisenhower was a guess. I knew reagan was born in Illinois.

I also guessed on the dare of the last amendment to be ratified. I remember vaguely that there had been a fairly recent one, but I could not have told you the date nor the content.

I also picked 4 for the number of assasinated president's b/c I knew it wasn't two, because I knew about Kennedy, Lincoln and McKinley. If 3 had been an option, I would have picked it, b/c I forgot about Garfield.

[Fishpicker]

i wonder if Garfield counts since he died from a heart attack while recovering from the assassination attempt. (80 days later)

McKinley was kind of in the same boat since he died from gangrene (from the wound received when assassinated)

If everyone who died from antiquated medical procedures were no longer counted as murders, I figure you'd have a long list to deal with...

Yeah, in the year 2254, they could say "Kennedy wasn't really assasinated, he just died b/c those barberic rubes in 1963 didn't even have elementary techniques in regrowing brain cells and restoring memory after head trauma".

Cute take. Check your spelling ("barberic"), then check your logic at the door.

Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley and Kennedy were shot. They all died from complications of being shot.

What part of that would you like to disagree with?

[ClevelandBronco]

assasinated

That one, too. I'm thinking that maybe you drink to excess, counsellor.

[ChiefJustice]

27 - got tripped up by Eisenhower. Though all were wrong because of knowing Abeline was Eisenhower's home town, but he just grew up there.

Same here.I could have sworn that Ike was born in Kansas.

I also missed the impeachment question.I knew Clinton and Andrew Johnson had been.I thought that Nixon was in that group too.

And,that damn official language question.Bah!

I was 27 for 30.

I think he was agreeing with you :spock:

[yeti]

I got 26. Is that passing?

[oaklandhater]

23

[RJ]

I too missed Eisenhower. Also how many presidents were assassinated and the illegal importing of liquor.

Phew, I was worried I could get deported if I failed.

Total correct - 27
