"I wish I was a history buff" ...George Costanza

So, I saw on the news that the government is changing its naturalization test, and I found a quiz online with some of the questions from the test. Boy, did I do badly! I sucked! Which is insane because I can't stand the idea that people born outside of this country - new citizens - will know more about the history of this country than me, who was born in here. This bugs me because it tells me I am taking for granted the amazing gift of living here, and having freedom. On top of that, what is my favorite holiday? You guessed it - 4th of July. So I am going to study some more about the constitution and the history of the United States of America.
