President Biden recently announced that the 2020 Citizenship Test, put in place by former President Trump, is too hard. They have reverted to the 2008 test that he considers easier. It is beginning to feel like every single thing that former President Trump touched is immediately destroyed as tainted. Miss Constitution wants to be fair about this so she is going to give you the “hard” test to take. You are on your honor not to look up answers. You are on your honor to give yourself an accurate score. Honor? Yes – honor. One of the indispensable attributes we require in all citizens. The other is moral fiber. Moral Fiber? You have to be kidding. Now, now. . . Please let Miss Constitution know how you did. Give yourself 20 minutes max.

There are 100 questions on the exam. I will give you all of them in three posts leaving out those that would be particular to a person. I want to remind you, again, that these questions were considered “too hard.” I want to remind you, also, that we are not even teaching this much to young people in school so that they can learn and know accurate American history, our governing structures and philosophies, and the heroes that lent their talents to building our nation. We are not a nation whose soul is debauched and whose people are not worthy. That the federal government and many schools are now mandating the teaching of racism as “training” is not education – it is abuse. Our nation is still in the process of trying to make all our unalienable rights from God a reality in America. Miss Constitution looked in vain on Monday for any mention of George Washington’s birthday and what he gave to us with his valor, with his character, and with his obedience to the new United States Constitution. Miss Constitution would have us give up President’s Day, a federal holiday with no meaning, and go back to honoring both Washington and Lincoln again. They remain remarkable Americans with much to teach us that is not being taught adequately. Good luck with your Citizenship Exam!
