Having read an article on how well a sampling of our elected officials did on a basic civics quiz, I was astounded to find that they scored an average of 44%. In a high school class that would be considered unacceptable. One has to wonder how someone serving in an elected position could possibly score so low on a quiz that every high school student should be able to pass with ease.
I have posted the links below for anyone that would like to take the quiz.
