Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. "I'm climbing out of the pool, my clothes will be clingy, avert your eyes!"
2. "I can sign the President's name. I have his signature down pretty good."
3. "Look. I think I might be good at this. I think you might find me valuable."
4. "I didn't want you to feel beholden to me. I didn't want it to be like an episode of 'I Dream of Jeannie' where now you have to save my life...the time-space continuum, where you have to follow me around with coconut oil and hot towels."
5. "It wasn't your fault. It wasn't Gina's fault, it wasn't Charlie's fault, it wasn't anybody's fault, Toby. It was an act of madmen. You think a tent was going to stop them? We got the President in the car. We got Zoey in the car. And at 150 yards, five stories up, the shooters were down 9.2 seconds after the first shot was fired. I would never let you not let me protect the President. You tell us you don't like something, we figure out something else. It was an act of madmen. Anyway, the Secret Service doesn't comment on procedure."
6. "Obviously, there's one story that going dominating news around the world for the next few days, and it would be easy to think that President Bartlet, Joshua Lyman, and Stephanie Abbott were the only victims of a gun crime last night. They weren't. Mark Davis and Sheila Evans of Philadelphia were killed by a gun last night. He was a Biology Teacher and she was a Nursing student. Tina Bishop and Belinda Larkin were killed with a gun last night. They were 12. There were 36 homicides last night. 480 sexual assaults, 3,411 robberies, 3,685 aggravated assaults, all at gunpoint. And if anyone thinks those crimes could have been prevented if the victims themselves had been carrying guns, I'd only remind you that the President of the United States himself was shot last night while surrounded by the best trained armed guards in the history of the world."
7. "You can say it, you know. It's not like I haven't heard it before."
8. "Yeah, and your name wouldn't have come up, by the way. "My son won the Illinois primary tonight". Three more hours, and he would have been able to say that. He'd have been proud."
9. "Don't think I don't know what you gave up to work on this campaign, and don't think that I don't know your value. And I'll never make you think I don't again."

"Tonight, what began on the commons in Concord, Massachusetts, as an alliance of farmers and workers, of cobbles man and tinsmiths, of statesmen and students, of mothers and wives, of men and boys, lives two centuries later as America! My name is ____ ____, and I accept your nomination for the Presidency of the United States!"
