You might not be able to name every U.S. president…but you should take this quiz anyway.

Which U.S. President Are You?

You got: Ronald Reagan
Via abcnews.go.com
You’ve been a natural leader from a young age. People gravitate toward you. You have a number of goals, but at the end of the day, you really want to just believe in yourself and help others to believe in themselves too.

I got JFK, three times.

Changed a few answers because there were a few which were equally correct and still the same result.

One of the presidents I really don't like:


You got: Andrew Jackson
Via history.com
You’ve never been given handouts and for that, your success tastes so much sweeter. You may be given great power, but you have the great responsibility to handle it. You always do what you think is best. Hats off to you.

Yeah, as a historian, I cannot stand Jackson.

I really think the dog question must carry a lot of weight.

I went back and answered the same as I did the three times when I got JFK except for a different dog.

With just that change, I ended up with Franklin D. Roosevelt, Obama, and Andrew Jackson.

Must have been the jelly beans.  I just had dinner, so none of the food items was particularly appealing right then, and RR and jelly beans go together like PB&J, so that was too easy to choose.

You have a rough exterior but deep down you’re forgiving and kind. You are also highly moral.
You’re thoughtful and can see how your actions have an impact on the larger scale.
But the hope is that you’re not smoking an average of 20 cigars a day.

In reality, I only smoke 1-2 cigars a day, so I suppose that's good.

Stupid....these tests.   A total waste of your time.







......Franklin D. Roosevelt

You don’t let the haters get you down. Nothing bothers you and nothing gets under your skin.
You’re able to bring people together under a common cause.
You’re a people person and can talk to anyone about anything.
You are made to be a leader.



....think about that....salt, coffee, eggs, and no favorite social media outlet.....and I'm freaking FDR!!!       :laugh:

DC could be worse - you could have taken it a second and third time and come up with Obama and Clinton as #2 and #3.

Actually, now I think about it kind of appropriate I got Obama as a #2

Monica- Food-Pizza, Dog-Husky (see what I did there?), Color- Blue, Clothing-Beret, City- Paris
Gennifer Flowers- Food- White Cheese Dip, Dog- Pit Bull, Color- Red, Clothing- 80s Shoulder Pad Suit Coat (whatever they are called), City- Las Vegas
Maria Furtwängler- Food- Pate, Dog- Poodle, Color- White, Clothing- Designer Dress, City- Hollywood
Elizabeth Gracen- Food- Steak, Dog- German Shepard, Color- Brown, Clothing- Some period costume, City- London

This could be a long list...
