Very true. Most Americans would answer all with alligators are angry because they got all them teeth and no toothbrush.

Did you look at the test? It isn’t very hard and I wasn’t totally serious with my answer…
Why would it be racist to say our political "leaders" could not pass the test? Chances Trump would pass?
Why do you ask a leading question that has nothing to do with my statement?
I think a majority of people would fail, Trump included. Civic ignorance is rife.
I think some demographics would fail in even larger numbers, and people would point to that to say the test was racist.
My guess is he feels dems would do worse due to increased racial diversity. That's why I brought up the average education levels.
Depends on who writes the test.
I would bet though that recent immigrants would score the highest.
The thing that makes the test more difficult is the fact that it's not multiple choice.
This practice test is similar to what an immigrant taking the test would have to pass. It gives you 10 random questions from the 100 on the test you linked. Some of the questions are really easy while others are more difficult to come up with the answers off the top of your head.

From what we've been hearing (frau will be taking the test) is that it's been other naturalized citizens experience that its 7 or 8 easy and a couple hard questions being asked.The thing that makes the test more difficult is the fact that it's not multiple choice.

I’ve seen some of those literacy tests. They were undoubtedly rigged, as the questions were ambiguous (i.e. how many letters are in this sentence) and usually left to the discretion of the proctor.
I guarantee that more than a few folks that “failed” these tests were a hell of a lot more informed and qualified to cast a ballot than their idiot pink cohorts.
And a lot of uneducated (book wise) people that are a genius at their craft.
I think voter ID laws where a student ID is not accepted, but a concealed carry card is accepted is suppression.

NRA Membership cards are accepted? I am aware that some state allow handgun carry permits with photo, but never NRA Cards....
Yes, correct. Edited for accuracy. A student ID is based upon similar information and generally includes a picture, yet for some reason they aren't considered as reliable...
Reintroducing "civics" into high school curricula would be a good start.
