  1. h**l no i only know like 4 or 5 of them but i live in canada and know more US presidents than Canadian priministers


  2. i never had to! but i did have to memorize how to spell each state and its capital, and where each state was! sucked.

  3. LOL!!! I STILL remember then all--30+ years later!  It amazes people when I rattle them off...(knew it would come in handy ONE day!!!!)

  4. Nope, we don't have to memorize 'em.

    In fact, we don't even go through all of them and explain anything about any of them.

    Heck, my teacher didn't even know if Davis was counted in as a president to make Bush the 43rd.

    It's extremely unfortunate, and unless they teach us in high school, which i sincerely doubt, we will never know.

    Yes it should be a requirement I think, even if you don't remember everything afterwards at least you will have the experience of having a vague idea of their names, if anything.

  5. not really but i think they should learn the history behind them


  6. Naw. Mr Reagan is the only one they need to learn about.  

  7. I havent, I'm 14. I guess they should..but kids should do a lot of other things that they dont too, and I'm sure we both know that'll never happen.

  8. Um maybe it depends on what school they go to. If they don't I don't think they need to.  

  9. Well If they want to learn money they should...

  10. Last year when I was in 8th grade, we had to.

    But, there was this story thing that we learned and it was just as easy

    and it was a very easy test to pass.

    I unfortunately can't remember it, but the one I do remember was McKinley was represented as McDonald's kinda of thing?

    I'm sure you could look it up if you really wanted to.

  11. i think so

  12. kids learn mainly the big ones like washington and lincoln i think they shouldnt have 2 know evry single prsn in history but i think they should b a little more informed about a few more
