You know it’d be interesting to sneak over to Democratic Underground, post a link to this quiz, and see how all the liberals do.

The libs would say that if their answer doesn't agree with the Constitution, it's because the Constitution is wrong.

I knew Bush wasn’t Texas born but never dreamed it eas Eisenhower. Guess I was just remembering the PA farm. The others I missed I should have known. I’ll remember now.

We've got some brave souls on here that would do just that. I just ain't one of 'em. lol

Now who is it again that does the "Dummie Funnies"?

[houeto]

Got them all!

Thanks. I’d probably flunk.

I don’t keep up enough on all the personages and details.

That's one of the things I remember about 6th grade. Eisenhower's picture stared down at me that whole year. Another thing was the teacher getting mad because I read too quickly...

I did a history paper on Ike, many years ago. That detail stuck in my memory for no particular reason.

Thanks. I’d probably flunk.

Probably wouldn't do worse than me. I am still in dead last place!

30/30 - although, I had to guess on the number of Presidents assassinated. I couldn’t only count three - Lincoln, Garfield, Kennedy. Since three wasn’t an option, I went with 4, although I can’t for the life of me think who the fourth was.

[Pollster1]

Nicely done!

"I knew Bush wasn’t Texas born but never dreamed it eas Eisenhower. "

You should pick a copy of his autobiography At Ease: Stories I Tell to Friends, and give it a read when you get some free time. It's one of, perhaps the best, autobiography I've ever read - right up there with Teddy Roosevelt's. A real masterpiece.
