Oops, I missed 4

[Mikey]

....but 4 was still a passing score...  90% of high school seniors reportedly fail this quiz and 50% of folks over 50 years old also reportedly fail......

I missed 6, but I still passed. I'm ashamed to have forgotten that it was @#$%^&* who said "Give me liberty or give me death". I was thinking @#$%...

That was a good test! I'll have my teenage daughter take it when she gets home from school.

5 here, I did know Patrick Henry despite Karen's tip off!

3 here ,but one I really knew. That's my excuse. I would like my daughter to take this, she teaches Social Studies in HS.

Karen I used to sing a song called "Ballad for Americans" One line was   "and partick Henry told them that, while America drew breath, it was liberty or death!"
It was a very long ballad.  I was a horrid student so the teacher was dumbfouded when I aced a test.  Little did he know It was the ballad I knew ,not cracking the books.

I loved this song!

The lyrics were revised a bit to mention MLK and John Lennon as well as Moslems.
I learned it in the 40s
