Could you become a US citizen?

70%. Maybe enough for a green card?

Young Drachma · 06-27-2006, 07:12 PM

sabotai · 06-27-2006, 07:16 PM

95%.

Didn't know the INS form question.

ScottVib · 06-27-2006, 07:19 PM

Missed the form number to become a naturized citizen.

biological warrior · 06-27-2006, 07:23 PM

95% was throwin' a no hitter until the last batter.

Barkeep49 · 06-27-2006, 07:24 PM

Got everything except the one about what form immigrants fill out.

Same here.

bosshogg23 · 06-27-2006, 07:31 PM

95%, picked The Senate on the Supreme Court Justices question instead of the President. I was thinking who confirmed the person not who nominated the person, doh!

henry296 · 06-27-2006, 07:33 PM

Missed the form question. That question is probably one of the easiest for the applicants since they had to complete it to apply for citizenship.

miami_fan · 06-27-2006, 07:36 PM

100%!

Thank God for having to go through all the immigration paperwork for the wife

Buccaneer · 06-27-2006, 07:40 PM

95% by misreading the "selecting" the SC justices. That was a trick question otherwise I would have gotten 100% since the form question appears to be common sense.

Groundhog · 06-27-2006, 07:40 PM

Guess I had better hold off on that move to the US...

ThunderingHERD · 06-27-2006, 07:41 PM

95. Missed the form question, but only because everyone here was saying they missed it so I figured the most obvious answer must be wrong.

cuervo72 · 06-27-2006, 07:42 PM

w00t, 100%!

Rizon · 06-27-2006, 07:42 PM

80%, I am still legal.

Although question 14 isn't worded clearly.

SackAttack · 06-27-2006, 07:42 PM

100%. Woo.

100%, but then again I totally guessed on the INS question. I would think that had I done poorly I would've done better if I were applying for citizenship. If someone were applying for citizenship, I would hope that they would study a little. None of the questions seemed out of left field and they all seemed to be pretty much on target with what I would want naturalized citizens to know. I'd probably want them to know more about how the government works and what rights they have according to the Constitution and Amendments than who said "Give me liberty or give me death."

Guess I would be able to get in then. Not that I would ever think of applying any time soon.

Passacaglia · 06-27-2006, 08:11 PM

Got everything but one -- I thought the President could declare war.

Now, see, that's the interesting thing.

For a formal state of war to exist, Congress must declare such.

However, in terms of actual warmaking powers, Congress delegated much of that to the office of the President in the War Powers Act, although there are certain restrictions under which the President must operate during time of conflict if war hasn't been declared formally.

clintl · 06-27-2006, 08:17 PM

100% - including the question about the naturalization form, which I completely guessed on.

95%--missed the naturalization form.

kcchief19 · 06-27-2006, 08:54 PM

I missed the ever-popular INS question ... then stumbled over which amendment didn't deal with voting rights. When I realized that my brain only had so much storage space for information, I decided I could forget about some of our non-sense Constitutional Amendments. Poll tax my ass.

sterlingice · 06-27-2006, 08:59 PM

duff88 · 06-27-2006, 09:29 PM

But I guess most people around in would get as poor or even worse.

90%, form and 14. The President doesn't select justices, he 'nominates' them, right? Though I'm sure many Presidents wish it were so.

You answered 40% of questions correctly. Here's your rating:

25-40%: Mmmm. Do you really want to be a citizen? This kind of performance isn't going to impress those nice immigration folks.

(probably just as well I'm english ...)
