How does one appeal ? I got the big red detour after I answered the "test" Q truthfully but wrong- I am 85 and legally blind-( no license)?

My deleted answer violated no guideline, to wit, "To be a good president, one must be elected first" Is not this a fact ?

Thank you for your consideration -Gerard

    Maybe you offended the fans of Ford. I'm sure someone thinks he was a good President, and he wasn't elected(I mean dude wasn't even elected VP).

    That is not a fact. Some of the best Presidents, including Teddy Roosevelt and Lyndon Johnson, were not elected President first. They were elected Vice President and became President when the previous Presidents (McKinley and JFK) died.

    I can see how you would think it would be the right answer and, yes, he would have to have been elected in order to be in his position. However, to be a good president would have nothing to do with being elected or not being elected. The criteria for being a good president would be more like, having extensive knowledge of the issues the country is facing, being able to communicate with foreign leaders, political and/or business sense. To be a good president has nothing to do with the fact that presidents are elected, as opposed to being appointed. Sorry but, I'm not sure how you would appeal because I don't know what test you took and, if you did, I don't think you would win. It was one of those questions that might have seemed simple to answer but, wasn't so simple after all.

    What's the issue ?

    You are 85, already you have lived longer than many people.

    You are legally blind, my husband has been legally blind since his eyesight was checked before he started school. He has learned to live with it.

    Why appeal ? You don't drive. What's your point of taking the test ? Was it something to do ?
