The Friend of Hamas displays his utter lack of knowledge on voting and why it is a right.

Of course the caveat to this is in the definitions. That are of course, not defined, but every Trumpian and those who know them will understand that vague criteria like "taking the vote seriously", "minimum level of knowledge" and "knowing the Constitution" all mean only one thing: whatever it is they want it to mean at any given point in time.

That is, if they think you shouldn't vote, they can whip out any one of the above vague references as 'argument" without defining why or defining it exactly in a way that allows them to exclude you.

We had a different "Social Studies" class each year, usually covering some branch of (US|World|TX) History.

Separate from that, we had requirements for one-semester of "Economics" (basic microeconomics, supply-and-demand, elasticity, etc) and one semester of "Government" (how we went from Articles of Confederation to Constitution, the parts of the Constitution, how the federal government operates in practice).

"which is you pick up a bunch of people at a bus stop and you bring them to a voting place,"BS is not talking about busing people to the polls here. He is referring to a baseless 'voter fraud' conspiracy theory.

for 10, which word beginning with L? for 9, only one letter comes last; do they mean 'latest'? for 6, do they mean EACH one inside the other, or just one?

badly designed test, even the SAT is better than this.
