Nemesis is a little on the touchy feely side. It could be any of a number of things. And Obama's first elected position was as a State Senator.

"Nemesis" is indeed far too vague. (Though maybe "Alzheimer's" was a bad guess.) For Clinton, after all, it was really Ken Starr who was his *nemesis*. Slogan/sound bite/concept may have the same problem.

I tried Starr jokingly for Clinton's nemesis. Didn't work. Then I tried something serious, and put down Milosevic, since I guess the conflicts in the Balkans were the biggest military conflicts during Clinton's reign. Then I find out when it's over it was in fact Lewinsky, after all. >_< (Also, wouldn't "Win one for the Gipper" be one of Reagan's famous campaign slogans?)

Thanks, everybody, for the comments. Ken Starr is a better idea than Monica Lewinsky (why didn't I think of that?), and Obama was a State Senator before he was a U.S. Senator. Changes have been made, so thanks for the input! The "slogan" and "nemesis" categories are open to interpretation, as noted. But I think they are fun.

when i put in senate, i got first elected for Obama but not the previous job... dont know abt the diff between State Senator and Senator but u have phrased the two things exactly same, so senate should work for both or none...

you should accept USSR and you should also accept "dubya the president" or "w the president" since that was one of GWB's slogans.

Wait, you mean "I did not have sexual relations with that woman" wasn't one of Clinton's slogans?

I think "Rush Limbaugh" should be acceptable for Obama's nemesis.

Loved it! I agree that the slogans are a little vague, but other than that, really fun (I'm a little impressed that I knew all the First Ladies' maiden names)

The nemesis one just doesn't fit. I tried "Oliver North" and "Iran-Contra" for Reagan. In truth, that's not trivia, it's a value judgement. Other than that, good quiz, but you probably shouldn't just take "Attorney" for "attorney general".

I've never made a quiz, so this is a shot in the dark: The nemesis category is a lot of fun, but it's inexact as people noted. Is there any way to make a whole category just a bunch of "bonus" answers?? I only missed 2 of them so it didn't bother me, but without that category, this is front-page material.

could you accept "Terrorists!" or "You're gonna die if you don't elect me" for Bush Jr.'s "Famous campaign slogan/sound bite/concept"?

This is treading into political territory, but George W. Bush spent a lot more effort fighting Saddam Hussein than he did Osama bin Laden.

Mission accomplished could be one for Bush II. It wasnt in his favor but you heard it a lot.

I'm not quite sure how Obama's nemesis is the War on Terror when his administration has decreed we're not allowed to say "terrorism" anymore...terrorist attacks are supposedly called "man-made disasters". I would say his nemesis is the bad economy. Well, I personally would say his nemesis is capitalism, but for the purposes of this quiz, he's supposed to be fixing the economy.

The only thing I could come up with for Clinton was "I Feel Your Pain". I liked this quiz.

excellent quiz.. love the collection of not commonly asked questions... the "slogan" category was a little vague... I agree with the "I feel your pain" or "I did not have sexual relations with that woman" for Clinton.... also, how about "Mission Accomplished" for Bush.... A little too open ended to truly be fair.... I dont there is an official accepted answer... with that said, gave u a 5 and nominated this quiz for publication :)

Second groug's comment about "compassionate conservative", and I thought "I feel your pain" should be a valid answer for Clinton. (It's at least as valid as "Read my lips" which I got credit for...)

I tried "morning again in America" for Reagan - I must have spelled it wrong. Also must have spelled Massachusetts wrong (which is weird, b/c I just got it right in the "60 second states" quiz). And I can't believe I forgot Michelle Obama

Those born in this country should know the names of the last five presidents. History books do go back as far as 1980. Election years for those who never noticed are always divisible by 4. If you're watching the summer Olympics, February had 29 days and we are going to have a presidential election that November.

For Clinton, "Bridge to the 21st Century" should also work since that was what he used in his 1996 campaign. Also accept compassionate conservative (in addition to conservatism).

@ezois: Wrong. There was no February 29 in 2000.
