College Students vs US Citizenship Test 

All you need is the big "DEPORTED" screen stamp when they miss a question

Ur almost at that half mil cut off too

God "invented" electricity, NOT Ben Franklin.

Lawyers and teachers... dear god...

@@22ergie Franklyn proved that lightning and electricity were the same, using a key on a kite string resting inside a Voltic jar. God Invented nothing.

Dependent clause*

xd

No, not literally in America in a sentence.

These kids did pretty darn good.

Alfred E. Neuman thanks you

😂😂

DavidFMayerPhD Apart from some inventions and the almanac, I could only think of him being known as a great statesman, and his trips to France. Really, I think it’s asking too much to know who signed which document, or to know that he was the only one to sign both. That sounds less like something you should know, and more like something cool to know.

Benjamin Franklin was not the only person to sign both documents. Both were signed by George Clymer, Benjamin Franklin, Robert Morris, George Read, Roger Sherman, and James Wilson.

Black Prince: Thank you. I stand corrected. My source was wrong.

8* Seduced enough Aristocratic French women to garner support for American independence.

11. Putting a bag over old ladies heads and having sex with them.

ha nice. came to comment this but you already had it locked down.

Trumps rights, I just spoke to the president of the the Virgin islands, so you were talking to yourself? What a moron!

Cage SC *thanks to Hamilton!

David Roberts what do you mean?

Cage SC well, in Liberalism, it is the achievement of having property which is the only thing that will make humans happy. So the pursuit of happiness and the pursuit of property are the same thing according to liberal theory. Btw, all founding fathers were liberals, and if you're American or belong to any society in the western world, or believe in the free market, you are also liberals.

badly worded question he created the electric rod

Invented the "lightening rod"

He wrote a paper about farting

Pablo David Clavijo god you're so fucking dumb

yes thats rights. on the 100th day of the year, us americans sacrifice people on electric chairs to please God Franklin

lol I know!!! xD

discover electricity

quan vu he didnt done that.... in europe electricity was a concept before...

Electricity has been known to exist from thousands of years Egyptians i guess.u were right Benjamin Franklin only discovered lightning is electrical.

I know. I intentionally worded it like that so that they would give me an answer besides that, since I don't think it would be a valid answer on the actual test . I should have put that in quotation marks,

Come on man, you can't be expecting much from inbred Arkansas kids

good choice

To be honest, America itself is kind of idiotic.

Dude, did you not know ben franklin was a wizard

Bluefan Bro you didn't know Ol' Ben was the true Jesus all along??? My boy Franklin said, "Let there be light," as the universe was born and a fucking lightbulb burst over his head in what would be the big bang. Praise the Lord Franklin.

Also, the story about the key and kite is complete bullshit, just like GW and the cherry tree.

he invented the lightning rod, though

Obama said he didn't build it, either.

Y'all mind if I...Invent Electricity?

Ben was Ambassador to France, among other things.

Jules Cordite invented the concept of the post office, was one of the first to discover deep ocean currents, started the first organized fire department, pot belly stove, first fire insurance policy, scuba fins for feet, the odometer, and the list goes on and on...

He didnt even discover it they found ancient batteries in the middle east.

*Discover...

Actually the DoI grants absolutely nothing; it's an expression of grievances and a declaration of freedom from the "grievers." Oddly the USA doesn't even recognize it as an official document of the United States.

Joseph DESTAUBIN You're annoying.

I'm glad that one other person in the comments comprehends that rights are/were not granted by government.

Declaration Of Independence was an extensive list of grievances damning King George and and Britain for being tyrannical and we weren't going to take it anymore so we told them to fuck off and kicked their asses a couple of times to boot. No document grants rights. The Constitution enumerates what powers the government has. If it isn't enumerated it doesn't exist.

Chris Duke That's not what he said. All he said was that the Declaration of Independence did not grant any rights. Rights are granted by governments. That's why property rights are different in each of the 50 states.

yas, becoz gobermant is squehr an it are maid of 13 younits waeed an deap, to calcalate voloom is 13 reihsd to squehrd. wish obioosley maiks 139 (eezi mait dant be zo damb pleeze)

Absolutely, since when has being a dumbass prevented anyone from being an American citizen? (Apols, only kidding... :)

Joshua T. Ok Im not a us citizen, im french and I think that usa people are nice, friendly and smart. That doesnt make America or All Americans stupid. I love USA and American people.

The reason people had issue with it is in America they drill into us all the multiples up to 12x12 but stop there. All these people could of course figure out 13x13 given a little time, but not off the top of their head quickly.

stunts They weren't drilled. Mainly, they were given the times table and/or calculator to do the math. My primary school was in my country, and our multiplication table was only up to 10x10. We were actually "drilled" because (I think) starting 2nd grade, we had to memorize and recite them in class. In America, they don't make you memorize and recite. If you do, good for you. If you don't, then good luck.

Current electricity was invented, yes. Previously there was only Static electricity. Who actually invented current electricity is a matter of constant debate.

David Grossenbacher I came down here looking if anyone else would point this out. It merely declares rights that it asserts we all inherently hold, but it's not a peice of legislation

God given rights. . .

I thought it was Lightnin' Hopkins!

you're both wrong.. electricity was invented by Thor the God of thunder..get your facts straight 😎

All I'm seeing are possible what could be classified as harsh criticisms and precise corrections. Sure, you could call them a bit unnecessary and semantic, but they aren't what I'd describe as "mean". However, I might've missed the comments you're referring to. After all, I'm only reading what's on the entire front page of the comments and not anything else.

Trolling wasn't invented until recently, that's why.

WILSON COME BACK!!! WILSON! WILSON!!!!!!!

Woodrow Wilson was quite possibly the worst president we've ever had. During his administration, we became debt slaves to international banks, saw the rise to power of organized crime, created the military industrial complex, and entered in to European political affairs for the first time since our inception and were basically at constant war somewhere in the world after that.

Corey but the League of Nations bro

@Corey I'm not sure _any_ of those claims about Wilson are true, though it's hard to define exactly what it means to "become debt slaves" or "create the military industrial complex". The consensus among historians is that he's generally among the top 10. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historical_rankings_of_presidents_of_the_United_States#Scholar_survey_results I'm curious about what your source for these beliefs is. Do you remember?

right?

These people all should have been around pre gps age so that shouldn't have anything to do with it.

I took the time once to learn how to fold it correctly. The next day I was doing it wrong again. Merlin: "It is the curse of men that they forget."

Communication majors so their overall sense of direction in life is off

"arkansas" things

Arfnudaniack Blue and probably never will. They also probably can't determine left or right either

I was waiting for someone to say that he was Aretha's brother and he liked to play with kites :-)

What about the cows? Slaves were not considered human. I realize that's taboo to say/write these days, but that's how it was. One might also ask "what about women?" But that's sort of a mechanism of the speech of the day; "men" meant men... "all men" was sort of the analog now to "mankind" which included both male and female. Here too, just reading it may make the SJWs cringe, but that was the linguistic mechanism of the day, like it or not. This seems intended to have been a 'gotcha' question, but it indicates the same fundamental lack of understanding of context and history that the original video publisher was trying to illustrate. It makes his point, louder.

"that we are endowed by our Creator with certain, unalienable rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness."

Yep, that's why governments are a cancer. Nobody can give you something or take something from you that you were born with.

Join the Republic. We'd love to have you. Amazing that these freshmen from Arkansas and Mississippi get much more right, or close to right than the random stops on streets and college campuses in LA, SF, NYC, Boston and Chicago.

What is even more amazing is that any of them graduated.

Brian Hardy I wouldn’t call that smart...

Natalia Andrea It’s Arkansas, so the bar is considerably lower

Brian Hardy true true true I'm surprised the inbred Arkansas students could actually even speak properly

VectorImage Wtf do you guys have against Arkansas? Lmao. P.s. am i the only one who when i read "Arkansas" read is like "Ar-can-sas" then quickly correct my self with the actuall pronouncation

VectorImage Well, considering that they spell their state "Arkansas" instead of "Arkansaw", I'm not sure really sure if you could call that "speaking properly". Seriously, how and when did this happen? Can you find me another word where "sas" is pronounced "saw"?

Dapper Kitten Woodrow Wilson right?

Who fucking cares mate. Andrew Jackson, arguably the biggest dick of a president, founded the Democrats. Now, I do think all the democrats are secret racists because they constantly advocate and pass laws that harm minorities, but I grant that that's a bit conspiratorial and maybe Democrats are just dumb. Point though, judging the past by present standards is meaningless especially since you can't change the past.

RetroGuy76 *spouts off random fact* DOnT tHey TEACh ThiS in SKEW AnYMOrE??!?!???!!

Everyone in my basket weaving class knows that WWI came before the US Civil War; how stupid are those questioners? Wilson president??? I thought he was the neighbor on Home Improvement? Or three of the Beach Boys?

Who was president in the Battle of Wounded Knee? hee hee hee

Yea. That was the point of the question. I didn't want people answering that.

Parcekz doesn’t take much! America quit teaching its children basically about 25 to 30 years ago. I don’t know what they do in school all day. Get in touch with their feelings, hug a tree. Learn how to draw welfare

Mt man 1949 they are teaching me the same things over and over again... so I teach myself in the library.

challenge accepted I’m proud of you for doing so! They can’t fail anyone anymore so they bore the hell out of advanced students. I don’t know what grade you’re in but check on taking some college courses in instead of high school courses

Yeah seriously that happened around 100 years before WWI. I was like, "are you serious"?

LilJbm1 Nooo... The American Civil War took place in the 1860s. The Great War (later renamed World War I) took place in the 1910s. That's a 50 year gap, not 100 years.

American education at its finest.

LilJbm1 more like 50-60 years

Nate Wallace I'm about 99% sure I recognize the architecture as Harding University in Searcy, AR. Am I correct? EDIT: took an entire two seconds to look into your channel and realized that I was incorrect. Your campus is eerily similar to HU.

actual info electritcity was discovered by thales from milet 600bc we call it like that, becaus eof his way to show it. and the first actual practical use about it wasnt Franklin, but clearly in "vis electrica" William Gilbert 1600. there were A LOT of electronic science going on between there 2 dudes. franklin just proofed, that a lighting strike is actual electricity, something a lot of other dudes claimed before but wernt stupid enough to actual proof.

I always find these videos to lack a proper sample size. That our you omit the people that know all this to make your video more juicy

Arkansas is confirmed full of retards

its over 9,000

Don't forget to put on your Kevlar

For community colleges:the place where you can earn a 2-yr college degree? nothing. Literally, nothing, all you need is being an adult, you don't even need to be a legal resident in many states. And if you are poor the government gives you spending money to go to city colleges and the tuition is $0. And before you think the degree is junk it's actually probably the most useful education credential to find a job since it's neither completely useless (like compulsory degrees) or making you overqualified for many public service jobs (actual bachelor degree). so what does it take really? go and register for the classes and fill out the form to get tuition waived and free government money and that's about it.

liberal dementia disorder

Just takes a willingness to be brainwashed and willing to go 100k in debt to the very people who are brainwashing you. You pay to fuck yourself up...with not buzz to go with it.

The sad shit is our society has gotten to the point that its now a expectation to have a bachelors degree...

money or being brown for diversity quotas. thats literally it

D.Williams Nor in alternative social justice class

lmao lesbian dance theory HAHAHA

SJW jokes weren't funny two years ago and they still aren't.

That's your opinion, but they still make me laugh. Because humor is subjective.

We had a Professor in American Literature Class, most of what we were taught about was not literature but Americans' genocide, Racial segregation, American Civil War. So I guess that's very typical to American Professors 😂😂.

The first part is correct that it has to end in a 9, but the second part is complete and utter nonsense. The way most people would do it (apart from just memorizing) would be 10*13 = 130 and 3*13 = 39, then adding that together to get 169.

just multiply 13x10 to get 130 then multiply 13x3 and add= 130+39 = 169

knowing the most important presidents is elementary school level

Good luck with deciding whether you should protest against a war, then...

Chris Dilger funny because politics is how your education will be achieved through and funded, politics and economy connect. In the end, anything you do will benefit the gov, even if it’s discovering a new breakthrough in science. Everyday lives are affected, managed, and stabilized by politics and the economy. I wish you good luck in life.

Everyone can't know everything. You learn what you need, you learn what you love. I know about things that not alot of people know, and others know things I don't. My life has not been any worse for not knowing those things any more than any of your lives are any worse for not knowing what I know.

Oh, and what does 13 x 13 have to do with citizenship? I would not think that would be on any test for becoming a citizen in the U.S. or am I missing something here?

I think that was just, you know, a "bonus question" the creator of the video added in to see if these people were either just idiots or didn't have an interest in American history.

yeah one of them said "oh wasn't 13x13" on your last one too"

wannabe to wasabe This is America...Didn't have to go far to find these dumb people...

Zachariah Candelaria John Locke was the one who came up with that and Jefferson was influenced - in addition to others - by John Locke.

thefourshowflip I agree, #utillitarianism^

No, it was always pursuit of happiness in the Declaration of Independence (the document was never changed, that would make no sense). John Locke came up with pursuit of property, but the Declaration of Independence changed it to happiness

Patrick Sullivan, I have read a few arguments that support both of our views on the origins of the declaration. Even one claiming that John Locke would have used the term "estate" instead of "property." Either way I do support the fact that Jefferson wrote the declaration and I would argue that the declaration was changed. it would would indefinitly need to be edited or revised during it's creation.

And in fact Benjamin Franklin didnt even discover electricity. He just described the phenomena in a better and correct way.

13x10 = 100? I must of missed that class. I bet your right they are doing something like that.

13×10=130 13×3=39 130 +39 169 Common core You're fucking stupid

In the case of such stupidity there is a need

13x10=100?

Sharon Yarbrough Read the comment, ignorant.

Dion1957 Clarify? Thank GOD we have the current administration instead a continuation of the last pile of shit; we didn't need to run retreads on the rickety old bus.

qq qq Cool!

Good for you

I screwed up the bonuse but that's because I suck at math in my head past 12x12 and I'm positive the immigrants who take the citizenship test are aloud a pencil to do the math if requested

Honestly the math question is what made me lose faith in all these kids the most. Who can't do 13x13 in their head? Come on, there wasn't even a time limit. 13x13 is not hard to do, here's how I do it just to help those who apparently have trouble: 13x10 = ? multiples of 10 are easy, it's 130. You just add a 0. 13x3 = ? much easier, 13 becomes 26, then that becomes 39. 39 + 130 = ? the problem has become a lot simpler now, and it's obvious that it becomes 169. When you break it down even these "large" multiplication problems become easy to do in your head, and "forgetting" how to do math is practically impossible since it's an intuitive process and not a fact that need be memorized. Seriously, multiplication is one of the basic four operations and not some higher level math theory like trying to determine convergence or divergence of a series. You're supposed to be able to do this at the end of Elementary School.

I think that says how bad their education system was.

In other words, they 're not given, they're guaranteed. Although that won't last much longer if SJWs have their way.

They're given and protected by the state. Different countries have different ideas on how much liberty a person should have, you're in one that is zealous, and rightfully so, about the preservation of those freedoms.

I was referring to the concept of rights that are considered inalienable, thus they can't be given, because they already exist from the moment of your birth, such as the right to life. They can only be protected or taken away.

USA isn't authoritarian....yet.

So Tesla should be credited for discover electricity... PLEASE, do your research before trying to sound smart.

Not even close. Electricity was discovered thousands of years before Tesla

I don't understand this Tesla cult of personality. Yes he was brilliant, yes he contributed important things, but please research before hand. The electric industry obviously existed before Tesla, he was hired by Edison to work in it. DC power was safer than AC, but much less practical. Radio (and other em waves) were realized to be electro-magnetic before Tesla. Just because he was brilliant doesn't mean he invented everything. All of this took 5 minutes of reading, which you clearly didn't do.

Jesus Christ, tutti santi, WTF you are talking about?!?!?! About 16 years before Tesla was born, the first electricity generator was made by Michael Faraday, prominent english experimentator. The generator was a magnet passing through wire coil, it was electromagnetic induction discovered by Faraday. Actually, it was him, who founded the basics of electrotechnics, and Tesla and Edison just produced commercial gadgets. Common, Americans, don't be so limited on yourselves, there is the whole world around! Most of the technical inventions of 19-20th centuries were made in Europe, mostly in Germany, England, France and Netherlands, not in US or somewhere else!

MORNING WOOD

Wilson was the ball, friend of hanks in castaway.

They are the last thing you need. What you need is a truly unbias, apolitical educational system that teaches more history and encourages discussion and reading.

What we need is for people to stop asking questions that have no relevance to our lives. Does knowing that there are 100 senators matter in any way in your life other than if someone asked you that specific question?

Matthew Wakamatsu Spoken like a true ignoramus. Why bother to know anything? Well it helps to have some knowledge of the world around us. It's sad when people know Kim Kardashian and JLo but have no idea who the Vice President is or don't even know why they are celebrating the 4th of July.

at least someone will know whats in US constitution and history +jackofswords7 "truly unbias, apolitical educational system?" someone (a biased political ed. system) has prevented those kids to know their history? really?

Genevieve Marie why. Bother knowin anything about something you can not control? We are just pawns
