Answer 2

If these are questions you need answered for an AP course I cannot imagine how inadequate the standard government course must be.  This speaks volumes about the state of education in the US and perhaps explains why so many young people can be so enamored with Obama.

Answer 3

You obviously have access to the Internet ... why not try looking the answers up on your own. Maybe if you do your own work you won't end up in summer school next year. And maybe you'll turn into a somewhat productive citizen who won't become a welfare drag on society.

EDIT - ashleyxxclare3131313: The point remains that you gain NOTHING by having someone else look up the answers for you. Every one of these questions is something you can look up on the Internet. I mean, honestly ... you didn't know how to find out who the majority and minority leaders of the House of Representatives are? And if you had even bothered to read the Constitution, you would have found out the answers to every other question you asked ...

BTW - After looking for 10 whole minutes, I found out that EVERY president from McKinley on to Bush 43 attended college. Harry S. Truman is the only president who did not earn a degree, but he attended two years of law school at the Kansas City Law School (now known at the University of Missouri at Kansas City).

And my time is very productive, thank you very much. I am a dedicated public servant who is in management for the Department of Homeland Security. I am also a Staff Sergeant in the National Guard with 16 years military service (10 years active duty) and a completed tour in Iraq. I happen to be on vacation, thank you very much!   :-)
