Ok all you History buffs/experts aka TURNBULL. Let's see how much you know about our Presidents (TB I expect you'll know all the answers...no pressure.)  Not every question is political as you'll see. Anyway, have fun. Me, I sucked. I only got 15 right.  TIS US Presidential Quiz

I got 23 questions right. Screwed up on the youngest President elected, and the assassination attempts. Good job Bam!! Without giving answers away, I was couldn't remember the heaviest president. What 350lbs.  The Tallest I knew. How you doing Bam? TIS

Got 25 right. Should have been 26, but I accidentally clicked on the wrong answer to a question that I knew. But I'll certainly settle for 25.  Signor V.

27 right. Some of the questions were questionable.
For example, Teddy Roosevelt was wounded in an assassination attempt after he left the presidency, but while he was running as a presidential candidate in 1912 on the Progressive ticket. (A speech text he kept inside his jacket blunted the bullet's force.) The Teapot Dome scandal did not directly involve President Harding, whereas Watergate directly involved Nixon and Iran/Contra directly involved Reagan. Hmmm. I don't know. You may be right.  Good job though. You win the prize so far (to be determined at a later date.) TIS
