I found it really interesting that my postman has to take the civil service exam, but my president doesn't...



wtf.

 

i found the copy of the test... i got 31 out of 33.

What does American history, civics, and economics have to do w/ winning an elected position?

 

I only got a 61%...........oh well.......but in my defence some of those questions where more history related and not political fundimetals related......i got all those correct when it pertained to our political system.

26 out of 33... I'm a slouch! I wonder what the average politician answered for #30? 2 policies to get out of a recession... Lol !!

 

27/33

Good timewaster! :up:

One. I'm not Canadian.

 

Gawd Dammit........I knew someone was gonna do it........should have figured it was gonna be you!
