	Can you accept "Jackie" as spouse?

	Interesting, but thought there could be some alternatives to "Star Sign" such as "Cuban Missile Crisis" or "Ask not what your country can do for you..."

	Seeing as how there is no credible evidence to support any of the conspiracy theories about the Kennedy assassination (and in fact, significant evidence to disprove most, if not all of them), I'm glad the quiz stays firmly grounded in fact, not Oliver Stone induced fiction.

	I'm disappointed that 'I am a donut' was not also accepted for the Berlin speech question!

	maybe add something about the Cuban Missile Crisis. And what was the name of his cabinet (Camelot). Great quiz though

	Great quiz! I just missed the Supreme Court appointee - I came up with a few possibilities (Burger, Warren) but none of them were correct. Really fun. Glad you accepted the English version of "ich..", since I had trouble with the German spelling. It was only accepting Joseph and Rose for me, though - it really should accept Rose and Joseph, I think.

	@delToro87: That's not what he said. Only Germans outside of Berlin use Berliner to refer to the pastry. When someone says 'I am Danish' they're obviously not talking about the pastry. @Guinevere: Nope he was appointed by Eisenhower.

	It should be noted that Profiles in Courage isn't a biography...

	Nice quiz--I didn't see the earlier version, but between the suggestions and what you must have had from the beginning, you did a really nice job of it.

	Also, I think most people know that he said "ich bin ein berliner" but probably can't spell it. Good quiz though

	I typed in "Rose and Joseph" and "Joseph Rose" as well as "Rose Joseph" and never got to "Joseph and Rose." It would have been better if there had been two separate categories for "Mother's Name" and "Father's Name." If not that, at least program it to take the answers in any order, and don't require "and" as it's not part of their names.

	Wy isn't Rose and Joseph accepted?

	Also, the things specifically asking about his presidency (preceded by, etc.) should state that you are asking about him as a president.

	@redsxfenway - I know its a myth that that's the literal translation, but given that it comes to mind (at least to mine) when you think of the speech, I thought it might be funny to have it accepted as an alternate answer. It wasn't really a serious point though!

	@delToro: It's a relief to hear that. I too think of the phrase, it's just an urban legend I find incredibly irritating

	actually 'Profiles in Courage' was a collection of medium length stories about eight different congressman (so maybe eight biographies), and its pretty well accepted that JFk didn't actually write most of 'Profiles in Courage", but it was rather his head speech writer who did most of the writing

	Camelot was not the name of the cabinet. It was invented by Theodore White after the assassination to describe the administration...they substituted fairy tales for actual history.
