You read the question incorrectly. Go back and read it again.

I always tell my kids, the most important part of answering a test question correctly, is understanding the question being asked.

Ok. Let's allow religion in schools.

Though it would have been wrong to force them to call any of the presidents listed, an idiot, in order to get a better grade.
The multiple-choice quiz question, which asked students to identify the president, allegedly
- “45th Pres;
-2017 Republican;
-Real Estate businessman
-Idiot,"

Read it again. This was the question:

45th Pres; 2017; Republican; Real Estate businessman; Idiot

Donald Trump
Ronald Reagan
Richard Nixon
Jimmy Carter.


They were forced to call Donald Trump an idiot, or else be penalized by getting the question wrong.

I managed to do well on the SATs, MCATs, Medical Boards, Specialty Certification because I know how to read a test question properly.

What you thought was the question could not possibly be, because there was no “all of the above” choice.

Fine. Go on believing what you like, but everyone else who read the article properly, knows I am right.

The other options, the South Florida Sun Sentinel reported, were Ronald Reagan, Richard Nixon and Jimmy Carter.

USA Today wants me to read their ads as well as the article. No, I will not. Perhaps I can find it somewhere else.
