I didn't read one closely enough. I thought it asked who was President during WWII instead of WWI. It even occurred to me that Truman also was President but wasn't listed. How may amendments and how many members of the House tripped me up. I did know the House was one of two possibilities but guessed wrong. Same with the one that asked which of four states was not an original colony. Two I was not positive about and guessed wrong again.

Too few members is right and then there is the Senate in which California JDPriestly Jul 2012 #23

well sadly that will never change dsc Jul 2012 #24

why can't it change by amendment? that's interesting...I don't know what can be changed Laura PourMeADrink Jul 2012 #31

The Senate can't be changed because the Constitution says that no state can have its Senate dsc Jul 2012 #38

California is big enough to divide into two states. They we would have four senators. JDPriestly Jul 2012 #44
