Too long, but I got all the first few correct.
Don’t have to...I was born here.
Unlike our current President.
Pretty simple. I’m sure they have a study book. I’d say this is geared to a sixth grader.
incredibly easy. Far too easy, IMO
I agree with the article’s title, “Could you pass?” Not do you KNOW the answer to the questions. Multiple choice (guess) quizzes are notorious for not assessing knowledge, but merely recall. Most NBCs can pass THIS test, but that doesn’t mean they could get the right answer if the questions were asked with no answer choices.

Mis-clicked on two of them. Messed up James Madison and John Adams, couldn’t remember who was President during WWI
Got a 97% without trying. The ones I missed had to with the numbers of things like how many amendments are there.
99/100
Missed when you have to register for Selective Service (I guessed 16, assuming it worked like Israel)
I’m a sabra Israeli, FWIW.
98 out of 100.
I was blitzing through and mis-clicked on the number of Supreme Court justices, and then I wasn’t sure if the Constitution was written in 1787 or 1789 ..
This is WAY too easy. I want questions on WHY the country was formed the way it was!
Friend of mine just got his citizenship last year and while at work he was tossing questions at me from the study book.
Didn’t miss a one but I can guarantee you most American’s couldn’t answer them.
I’m not special either I just like to read alot.

What do you think the average score would be by those hanging out at the Huffington Post?
Birth right citizenship is a luxury we can longer afford. Everyone should have to pass this test to gain their citizenship born here or not. It would certainly cut most of the illiterate, low information types from the voter rolls and jury pools.
I know someone who said there are 57 states. He claims to be a citizen.
If he’s not a citizen, then he’s the biggest fraud in the world.
I got only one wrong:
What is the name of the U.S. economic system?
a) Capitalism
b) Socialism
c) Communism
d) None of the above.
Actually, I didn’t get it wrong. I actually got it right, but the authors of this idiotic test had a different opinion. So they wouldn’t accept “D” as the right answer (which it is).
98%, thought most of it was common knowledge.
18. What is the "rule of law"?
ߦ Everyone must follow the law.
ߦ Everyone but the President must follow the law.
ߦ Government does not have to follow the law.
ߦ All laws must be the same in every state.
