This is a cool 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.

only missed the islam symbol
Too easy.
Oh for the love of Pete, I missed the Sotomayor question. I was sure I had them all.
Got them all right, but it wasn’t that hard.
Freepers should be proud.
Thanks to all Freepers and thanks to Jim Robinson for FreeRepublic.
I didn’t miss any. And I had to answer that I’ve had no education beyond high school.
I missed the Soledad O’Brien question. My guess is that the average freeper would score 12.5
13/13
I must not watch FOX News.
Got ‘em all right except the one on the unemployment rate — I was thinking of the actual rate vs. the rate reported by the gov’t.
I got them all right.
it must asked different questions to different people
13/13. I would expect most freepers to score well
The only Turkey I know about is the one on my Thanksgiving Day table.........
and Obama
Me too!
Yes, it was very, very easy. I expected tricky stuff.
I nearly voted Kagan for the Sot0mayor pic.
Since the average score among men was around eight correct and the average score among women was around six correct, this must prove that women are subject to ongoing harassment and oppression by the Pew Research Center.
Got them all correct... not a hard test. On the other hand, I’ve been paying attention.
Aced it... too flukin easy...
