The New Citizenship

The Heritage Foundation brags about its involvement in devising the new citizenship test. The new exam will be tried out in 10 locations, including Miami (this has the wife a tad freaked). All 144 questions and answers are now available online. I like the new test it stresses concepts and meanings of American historical moments rather than focusing on names and dates. It gives prospective citizens a better understanding of what it means to be an American.
