    Test time

    BISMARCK, ND - North Dakota lawmakers are considering a bill that would require high school students to take the same test that immigrants must pass to become a U.S. citizen.

    Take the test here: Naturalization Self-Test 2 | USCIS



    Pretty basic stuff. Please post your results. I got 1 wrong. (Benjamin Franklin question)

    Thanks.

    I got 20/25. Probably would get the same score on a Canadian version. Don't worry though, I'll be staying up here where I don't have any "Health Insurance Woes"

    I agree kids should take this test Gorven. Here's the other thing: be able to balance a checkbook! Both of the wife's kids graduated from HS and had no clue. I'm still not sure the girl can do it.

    My GF did really bad on this test, I had to pay (bribe) her $20 to take it. She's no dummy, just hates everything about history, government, and the news! This has led to many a arguments, but she does have a good looking walk.

    When I worked for Publix this french-canadian couple who couldn't speak a word of english would have their daughter translate for them and would always tell me how they loved the area and how far they've come from how it was. Canada's on my list of places to visit for reasons only known to me and the wife, next to Australia, Ireland and Italy.

    Well I'm a little embarrassed to say I missed 4.

    The # in the House of Reps...I had it narrowed down to two, 50-50 shot...Loser.
    One about Ben Franklin.

    never understood the magic number of 435 House of Reps. It appears that it got there with a law in 1911 when NM & AZ were becoming states and got capped by law in the late 1920s. Hasn't changed since. I don't know if the size of the House (or the Senate) is a big deal. But when they stopped the Prez at having 2 full terms or up to 10 years when filling out an existing term and then getting elected twice on their own, they should have put in term limits for the legislative branch. 3-4 terms in the House and 2 terms as Senator. Then maybe some of these political fiefdoms may not exist or be as powerful. But because admending the Constitution starts in the legislative branch, that was never going to happen. And we live with the consequences of that chink in the Consitutional armor...
