ConstitutionFacts.com Issues Challenge to Americans to Test Their Constitution IQ With an Interactive Quiz

Chicago, IL (PRWEB) August 8, 2006 –

Quick… what is the maximum number of years a United States president can serve? What part of the constitution is the Bill of Rights?

Right now, ConstitutionFacts.com is challenging Americans to test their Constitution IQ at http://www.constitutionfacts.com. Between now and Constitution Day on September 17th ConstituionFacts.com is asking people to take the ten question Fascinating Facts Quiz, then pass the quiz on to ten friends, asking them to pass it on to ten friends in turn. The goal is to raise constitutional awareness using a fun and interactive tool.

“The Constitution serves as the fabric of our society, and today, more than ever, is the right time for all Americans to examine and understand it,” says Keir Walton, founder of ConstitutionFacts.com. “With Constitution Day quickly approaching we want to make sure that everyone in America knows ten basic things about their constitution.”

With civics class a distant memory for most and the constitution reduced to a mere political football, many Americans have tuned the document out. And that’s too bad, because without a thorough working knowledge of the document it’s impossible to participate in the democracy as a fully informed American citizen.

“By leveraging the power of email people can challenge friends and family with the Fascinating Facts Quiz to test their knowledge and see how they scored against others.” The quiz has all the right elements – it’s fast, fun, educational, easy to use and best of all helps you learn more about the greatest legal document ever created,” Walton said.
