This is a neat test.
It shows results in a number of ways.
It indicates that the majority of Americans haven't the slightest idea as to what is going on.
It's no wonder our politicians take such advantage of us.
This is an interesting and simple test.
It's astonishing that so many people got less than half right.
The results say that 80% of the (voting) public doesn't have a clue and that's pretty scary.
There are no tricks here - just a simple test to see if you are current on your information.
Test your knowledge with 13 questions, then be ready to shudder when you see how others did.

Re: Take the test
That's pretty cool Jaybird. I think I've taken this same one, probably from FB but I still only got 11 out of 13 
I don't think knowing exactly the dot where Isreal is and forgetting who the PM from GB was is going to hurt me much tho
Still pretty cool to see just what you don't know!

Maybe you should be checking out the "fishing lure nipple jewelry" or the "Gay Mud Wrestlers" threads...
