E) Cronyism on its way to socialism
:(
So I picked up my pocket sized paperback book of The Declaration and the Constitution of the United States of America that's always within reach of my PC, turned to the back of the book and read XXVII.
Yay! I aced the test! I aced the test! Why? Me dino can read Roman numerals, that's why.

We could only be that lucky...
If the answers were not multiple choice. I probably would not have remembered Roberts as Chief Justice
Those were two questions that I would not have included if I wanted to determine an applicant's suitability as a potential productive American who values free markets and individual liberty.

I had some quibbles with the test, of course. The "first President" was John Hanson, president of the Continental Congress. He is honored on a USPS stamp. Jefferson's draft of the Declaration was edited by the Congress. He did mostly write it, but he was not the sole author.
The number of Amendments was close for me... I was afraid that I might have missed a recent one. But, no: I guessed right.
I doubt I'd have scored as well if the "right" answers weren't given in multiple choice form.
Is knowing how to rationally reduce choice to one best choice a valid selection criteria?
overturning Citizen United would make it XXVII.
