Citizenship Questions
Friday, November 21st, 2008 | Author:

As part of a test to become a US Citizen, people applying for citizenship must answer 100 questions.
For those who would like to test their knowledge, I am listing 10 of those questions…
 
Anyone care to try? : )
  1. What do we call the first ten amendments to the Constitution?
  2. What are two rights in the Declaration of Independence?
  3. We elect a U.S. Senator for how many years?
  4. If both the President and the Vice President can no longer serve, who becomes President?
  5. What is the highest court in the United States?
  6. How many justices are on the Supreme Court?
  7. What is the name of the Speaker of the House of Representatives now?
  8. What are two rights of everyone living in the United States?
  9. Why did the colonists fight the British?
  10. Who wrote the Declaration of Independence
 
Good luck!
