What's Your Constitution I.Q.?

MUST-TAKE TEST! (http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/amex/hamilton/sfeature/quiz.html)


Check this out. It's great! Every American should take this test and be refused voting rights if they fail.

BTW, I got a 9 out of 10 points. STRONG CENTRAL INTELLECT "You have a strong sense of what's right!"

Memo to the Overly-Critical: May I politely remind you that I was not born here, and that I have been an American citizen for only 7 years.

I got 8 out 10 on the easy one and 10 of 10 on the hard one.

[MSGT]

9 on both, I missed the first one on hard

[Wolfcounsel]

I got 10 out of 10 on the hard one. I didn't bother with the easy one.

[gnome]

9 on the hard one.

They would have been harder but I think some of the multiple-choice responses were too obviously silly.

[DeclinetoState]

10 on easy, 9 on hard.

[Maggie_T]

Good. You're all allowed to vote. ;)

[Neil Peart]

9 on easy, 6 on hard.

[Tazeeyore]

Whew. I can't vote. There is no one I care to vote for this time

[HomeschoolrsRUs]

Nine & Nine

I got tripped up on the hard one about the three branches, I misread the question. Still, pretty good score(s) I think.

[hellinon]

Federalist-worshipping PBSers. Not worth my time.

Ok, it was. 9 on both.

[DesertFox]

What's this? DtS beat me?

I demand a recount





but will settle for a cold Corona

[DeclinetoState]

Show me your hanging chad, DF.

[DesertFox]

Oh, you bad boy, you :limp:

[Riverboat]

9/9

In baseball terms, that puts me in the pantheon of gods!

[Timberwolf]

8/9

[The_Sonarman]

10 on the easy test, and 9 on the hard test.

I have no excuse. I'm hitting the books again.

[GreatDredScott]

10 out of 10 on both.

[gnome]

Good. You're all allowed to vote. ;)

Wow, even me? :D

[Maggie_T]

Yes, hon. Even you. Though we might regret that. :evilgrin:

I dunno, gnome. Are you a U.S. citizen? Are you at least 18?

[Longhorn_Platinum]

Timberwolf:
8/9

:yeahthat:

Oh yes.

8/9

I protest the lost point for my 9 out of 10 on the easy test. States elect senators, the president, and representatives. It does not appear logical to say that they elect the "House of representatives."

[Beowulf]

Perfect score!

(I did the hard one, BTW)

That's the one I missed also...I thought the PEOPLE were to elect the HoR and the State Legislatures (originally) SELECTED the Senate...and the states, via the electoral college SELECT the President. The States have left the selection of the electors up to a popular vote of the citizens of the state.

That's my excuse, anyway. :grin:
