How could one forget a face like this?
The Immigrant Archive Project, a group dedicated to sharing immigrant stories, recently took to the streets of Miami to ask “born and bred Americans” some of the questions that appear on the civics test for United States immigrants. The test consists of as many as 10 questions that are pulled from a pool of 100. One of the questions asks test-takers if they can name the current Vice-President of the United States. Here are the answers captured in the video:
“Nope.”
“Umm … crap.”
“Umm … I don’t remember.”
“What’s his name?
“I don’t know that.”
One of the individuals correctly answered “our boy Biden,” who “holds it down.”
Another question asks what territory the United States purchased from France in 1803. Hint: It’s not Puerto Rico or Hawaii, and sure as heck isn’t the Statue of Liberty. (Don’t try telling that to some of these guys.)
The video says 15 people were quizzed, and only one passed — with the bare minimum of six correct answers out of 10.
“I’m not sure the 15 people we interviewed here in Miami are representative of the nation as a whole, but we were surprised to see only one person pass,” Tony Hernandez of the Immigrant Archive Project said, according to ABC News.
In fairness, one of the 100 questions asks “What does the President’s Cabinet do,” which many Americans wonder about every day.
