I gave up after 4 questions..I never liked history. :(

90%, yipee, I can stay!

The "INS Form" question gives away the answer; note that it asks which "application".

Would be nice if the the site posted the overall avarage of everyone taking it.

ditto
thought maybe they made it tough and you had to petition; should have known better.

70% for me, though it should have been 85%.

1.) The two questions about the Constitution aren't fair. They stuck "1776" in there to trick people. I knew the answer was "1787" (It was the second document written, right after the "Articles of Confederation"), but I second guessed myself.

2.) I thought only the president had the power to declare war? Since when did Congress get that power?

Missed one. The one that asks about the form for naturalization. Since I'm not applying for nor will I ever have to, how the heck should I know that?!

What does the INS form question have to do with basic american civics and history knowledge? 95% by the way and I blew the question about trial by jury.

You answered 90% of questions correctly. Here's your rating:

85-100%: Welcome to the United States! (And, truth be told, you know more about this great land than most Americans.)

3. In what year was the Constitution written?
1776 is not correct.
1787

18. Who has the power to declare war?
The president is not correct.
Congress

95%. It'd have been 100% but I changed my mind and answer on the immigration form question.http://www.debatepolitics.com/images...s/eusa_doh.gif

Congress always had that power, I think...that's why Vietnam(and Korea) was not officially ever a 'war', but a police action. Congress never declared war against Vietnam.

Yes, I can. I am confident on my ability. Any person can apply for naturalization and may be eligible for citizenship,

"Any person"? No, not really. A legal resident can apply, but there are residency requirements and all sorts of legal issues.

I'm glad I was born here, because they probably wouldn't let me in...

I thought of applying for Sweden citizenship, when I was still smoking and it often said on the packet of cigarettes: "Smoking kills 5000 Finns every year".

If I ever start smoking again, I could as well try for the US citizenship.
