    Lol. A short biography on your pal, Omnipotens Maximus Rex. When I was younger, I wanted to do two things when I grew up, play left field for my beloved [colored=green]Oakland Athletics[/colored] and be President of the United States.

    Due my desire to be president, I read a gang of books on the presidents and U.S. government. In attention to watching cartoons, playing sports, (and sucking at it,) playing video games, reading comics, I also watched a lot of documentaries growing up. I was a pre-teen watching both parties national conventions, I like I now watch porn.

    One summer when I was 8 years old, I read an entire history book, at the back of this book were all of the U.S. Presidents, I committed that list to memory. As a matter of fact, my nickname growing up was President, (or Pres. for short,) I earned this moniker by answering a historical trivia and topping it off with reciting the presidents, (full names.)

    So yes Sion, though your boy Rex has absolutely zero way of quantifying it, he does know that Speaker of the House of Representatives is third in line to presidency, is the highest ranking member of Congress, sets the legislative agenda, is quite important in regards to getting legislation passed, and sets the rules as far as Congress, (meaning the House is going to be run,) the Speaker is also from the party that has the majority in the House.

    And yes Sion, Rex knew that Virigian, James Madison was the major architect of the U.S. Constitution, a contributor to the Federalist, (series of articles in support of ratifying the Constitution,) a Founding Father, and 4th President of the U.S. He was also the shortest president and was in office when the British army burned D.C. during the War of 1812.

    The questions I did get wrong was when was the Constitution written, I put 1789, instead of 1787. The Constitution was ratified in 1789. I also got the question wrong about the SCOTUS, when it asked what it does, interpret the laws, determine the constitutionality of the laws, and the other two questions. That was embarrassing because being a lawyer is what I want to do.

    The fact of the matter is that test isn't hard and anybody who got a C in U.S. history and American Government could pass it. It wasn't like the ? was asking why the 3rd Amendment was enacted? Wait, bad example, it did, but anyway.

    I got the first 4 right - and it said 4%. I know enough math to know I'm not about to sit through 100 questions.
