i thought that the lincoln v douglas debate question was a bit unfair, as there were 7 debates and the answer could have been either of 2 of the answers
i also thought that the economic questions could be argued
but if any pol missed the basic civics questions, they ought to resign their seat immediatly
Three: #8 (Roosevelt and the justices)- I just plain forgot #11 (Anti-Federalists and the Bill of Rights)- I either never knew or I am getting early Alzheimers #27 (free markets and the means/ends)- I didn't understand what was meant by “means and ends”, though it's pretty obvious, I was thinking of something else. I did “overthink” the answer on this one. Grrr….
To be fair there were a couple more I wasn't totally sure about, but got right anyway.
Hmmm, I did worse than anyone 84.85%, 28 out of the 33.
#4 – The Lincoln Douglass debates #8 – . Roosevelt and the justices #9 – . What only the federal government can do #11 -. The federalists and the bill of rights #17 -. Sputnik (I said it was the dog)
Missed “of the people, for the people”
I hope reality isn't quite as bad as their study makes it out to be.
I got 31 of 33, for 93.94%. I missed questions 27 and 33. I have the same hope as NA.
i took this over at crooksandliars…i missed 5

Missed 2 as well. The per person bit about taxes was ambiguous, so missed it.
Missed one. The taxes one that pacatrue mentioned.
