Don't know if they were any smarter, rather much better educated. They didn't teach kids to put condoms on cucumbers and to question their g****r.

I got 27. A passing grade by today's standard.

People of earlier days were more religious and disciplined. From reading the writings of earlier presidents and things from old newspapers it was apparent to me that the culture was much more Godly and honorable than the people of today and people seemed more articulate, so it's no surprise to me that they were better educated. It is just two days arrogant self aggrandizing narcissism that makes people think progressive doesn't really mean regressive. Listen to the way Teddy Roosevelt spoke on immigration and you can see not only a big difference in decency, integrity and culture but the way in which people thought and express themselves. They would have recognized political correctness for the subversive Bull S**t that it is and wouldn't have put up with it for one second and they would've run Obama out of office and tried him for treason years ago. People put God and country before their own personal self-aggrandizement and welfare in those days. Now days these politicians have neither the guts, common sense, nor the wisdom to do what's right.

I don't think the secular liberal progressives were able to throw God off the planet 'til pretty recently, 700, and all the Christian {"Ivy League"} Universities, {Brown, Colombia, Cornell, Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford, etc.}, were still teaching from the Holy Bible well into the 20th century; but are now "entitlement" bastions for the "Foreign Exchange" students from non-assimilating Muslim countries {as is our current POTUS}, from primarily the Middle East. Hummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO TRUMP!!! I got a 65 on the test, but many answers were just educated and lucky guesses.
