Well, a new era begins later today. I'm extremely unsure how these next four years will be, but I hope for the best!

I dunno, I gave littlegoldwoman negative points for combining "a" and "lot" into one word. So ungrammatical.

I'm glad I missed the Obama ones too. I don't know anything about the man, and I don't want to. I'm proud to be ignorant. Learning might force me to admit I was wrong about something.

@LGW - Telling us not to rate you low is a sure way to get rated low. I hated Bush but at the beginning of his presidency I hoped I was wrong about him and was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt for the sake of our country. Too bad there are so many sore losers out there.

I've low rated them because they've not got the ' in don't or I'm or Can't or Let's. Good quiz though.

@John2: Well, it is kind of a small state! Numbers of Presidents born in each state: VA (eight), OH (seven), NY and MA (four each), NC, TX and VT (two each), AR, CA, CT, GA, HI, IA, IL, KY, MO, NE, NH, NJ, PA and SC(one each).

@littlegoldwoman: First off, calling him NObama isn't exactly being "nice". I'd also be interested to know if you were one of the Bush supporters who were constantly saying, "You may not like him, but he IS the President, so you should stand behind him." Sounds like the shoe is on the other foot now.

Fun quiz. I only missed the secret service code names for each. I did not vote for Mr. Obama, but he is the duly elected President of the United States and thereby deserves the respect that the office commands. I pray for much success in his administration and will surely treat him kinder than the critics of Mr. Bush.

klogg - your "Cancer" comment was so darn funny. I mean, here I am with a deceased father who was diagnosed with cancer at 47 and you come along and crack me up. Thanks for the pick me up - jerk!

i'm not sure how proud people should be that they know so much about any president. isn't part of this country founded on NOT having such a powerful central leader?

@Chad:Dude learn to take a joke seriously! I mean in all honesty I lost my Father to lung cancer, which was mostly because he was heavy smoker. But that dosn't mean I get all offended when someone makes a joke, because that's all they are "jokes". I know the pain of loosing a loved one! Believe me! But getting offended by some idiots jokes only makes it worse. That's why you gotta learn to just ignore people sometimes.

Say anyone "deserves the respect that the office commands" is completely retarded. I don't mean to insult anyone by saying that, but I mean to say that for me a person needs to earn my respect. Bush didn't earn it, and Obama hasn't earned it yet (I believe he will, but above being elected by a population whose intellectual capacity I find wholly questionable, he hasn't really done anything to this point).

Also, if you are offended by the word "cancer", there's something wrong with you. I don't think you even considered what he said, you just went off on him because you felt like being a douchebag today. If your father died of cancer, I'm sure you know how it works. It kills something from the inside, disguised as part of the body but working against it. The same was with Bush, albeit unintentionally. He became president (damn rednecks that voted for him) and his work consisted of spending money and destroying the economy, lieing to the country about crises and emergencies, and getting the country involved in a war every person reading this knows is unnecessary. Sucks that your dad died, but it was actually a pretty funny joke.

Its surprising to see that I know much more of Obama's background, over Bush's, when the latter has been president for eight years. I guess that Obama is just more open about who he is, and where he comes from.

Littlegoldwoman deserves to have -87 points for that comment, that is ignorant and wrong to say especially now that he is our president. I was never a big fan of Bush but I would still never say anything bad about him simply because he was the president of our country. Besides, Obama is going to be the one who will turn our country around and fix our economy.
