I feel so ashamed. That said, I bet that I did better than Romney.

I'll bet you did, too.

This past week, Jeopardy's contestant were college students; none of three knew the President's cabinet and judiciary appointments must have the advice and consent of the Senate.

Well, they used to.

Perhaps.  Do it again; you may have learned something new since then.   ;)

I got a 90% something.  My excuse is I was listening to Breitbart at CPAC and only half reading the questions.

At any rate if anyone's interested Hillsdale College is having their Constitution class starting online in a few weeks.
Quote
“Constitution 101: The Meaning and History of the Constitution” is a 10-week online course presented by Hillsdale College.
 
Featuring an expanded format from the “Introduction to the Constitution” lecture series with Hillsdale College President Dr. Larry Arnn, Constitution 101 follows closely the one-semester course required of all Hillsdale College undergraduate students.
 
In this course, you can:
 •
watch lectures from the same Hillsdale faculty who teach on campus;
 
•
study the same readings taught in the College course;
 
•
submit questions for weekly Q&A sessions with the faculty;
 
•
access a course study guide;
 
•
test your knowledge through weekly quizzes; and
 
•
upon completion of the course, receive a certificate from Hillsdale College.

It's free and better than anything on tv.  :)

I got 30 out of 33 correct.  It looks like we all did substantially better than the profs that teach ??? the subject.  No wonder the younger generations haven't got a clue as to how this country is supposed to work.
