SCORING
Score one point for every (d) answer except you receive an automatic one point for any answer to Numbers 4, 6, 11, and 12 as all answers to those are correct.
I know you might have thought any answer was correct to Number 10 but that is a trick question - I was looking to see if you care more about the country than about frolicking on the beach with your chosen liberal hero. For me that would have been frolicking with AOC <sigh> but unlike some of you, I am truly ideologically pure!
So, if you scored a perfect 12 you have passed. Congratulations!
Any score lower and you have failed Perry’s Liberal Ideological Purity Test. Immediately begin watching Lawrence O’Donnell every night for the next six months, take notes if you must, and then take Perry’s Liberal Ideological Purity Test again.
In the meantime, don’t even talk to me.
