    Hmm... I got a 95%. I wasn't completely sure whether the Speaker of the House or the President Pro Tempore of the Senate took over and I guessed wrong. It wasn't a hard quiz, really for anyone who has ever taken an American Government class, might be challenging for those applying for citizenship, though.

    * ashamed *

    I missed President during WW1, thought the First Amendment was bear arms, and got the number of Representatives confused with Senators.

    Well, I got 35%, but that was only because of my combined historical and general knowledge; not my knowledge of Americanasia. Good thing I'm not American, for I would be a failure.

    Are you a man... or a slave?

    A man chooses! A slave obeys!

    Yeah, Bioshock won out over Starship Troopers. This time.

    I suppose I could brag about getting 100%, but considering I was a History/Pol.Sci. major in college I'm supposed to have this kind of thing down anyway so it's nothing special.

    Heh, I got 60%. Surprising, considering how little I know about the American government outside of a few historical facts.

    100%. Was that supposed to be hard?

    WTF, people?

    (EDIT: Make that, WTF American people? You don't know this stuff but you still get to vote?)

    In that thing you call a closet. Better watch out,
    85%

    Missed the House of Reps question, the question about who would serve when Pres and Vice Pres are unable to serve, and how many years a senator is elected for.

    70%. :(

    Maybe I should spend more time on my history and less time on Final Fantasy....?

    Nah. I'm content to be just another lazy American. It's a tradition, after all.

    60%, but I still have four years till I can vote.

    Should I be ashamed since my brother was a polictical science major and a history minor in college?

    100%, although I wasn't entirely sure about the order of presidential ascension, so I knew 95% and got lucky.

    ...really? The first two are usually the easiest to remember for people...

    I got 100%. And almost none of this stuff is taught in Gov 101 or PIG.

    Got a 85%, but I read two of the questions wrong which kind of sucked. Question 6 said-"Which one of these is a right guaranteed by the First Amendment?" which I thought said not so I said right to bear arms, and in question 9 when it asked-"Which of these was NOT among the original states?" I thought they meant colony... oh well still did pretty good.

    Er... the answer doesn't change lol.

    Maine was neither an original state nor was it a colony.

    I got 40% and I'm okay with that. Got the dates wrong and the stuff about government process. Pretty good for a Canadian, eh?
