    Damn my bad it's a lot easier than I thought I got 18/19 I liked #8. It seems we have less and less of that accountability these days. I got # 11 wrong.

    I'd be depressed if people couldn't pass that with flying colors.

    If you can't pass that, you probably prefer a president you can drink a beer with (if he wasn't a reformed born-again who shuns alcohol).

    Look where that's gotten us...

    apparently not 11/19

    I guess I shouldn't rag on Americans knowing very little about Canada when I know just as little about the US.

    lesson learned.

    Wow, no excuse to miss any of those if you have been a US citizen your entire life... well I guess some people might get mixed up on the geography -- which seems to be a weakness of most people.

    What did Miss Teen S. Carolina say about maps and such??? ;)

    Bad citizen? Probably not. However I would suggest brushing up on your junior high history and social studies...

    I can't believe how much stereotyping I see on here all the time. It's pretty hypocritical.
    I pledge to you a government that will not only work well, but wisely, its ability to act tempered by prudence, and its willingness to do good, balanced by the knowledge that government is never more dangerous than when our desire to have it help us blinds us to its great power to harm us.

    17 out of 19. I flubbed the Canadian border one (with western states), and picked the wrong one for guaranteed rights. Overall it wasn't too tough. But why does it matter if someone knows the minimum age for a president? Another concept question would be better. Or how about something useful like what are your Miranda rights?

    16/19....not my best work.

    ...and that question with the so-called correct answer of "The Civil War" is incorrect. The correct answer is the "War of Northern Aggression." ;):D
