Great quiz! Since you've included current prominent members of the Kennedy family, I would also suggest adding three Kennedys: 1) Joseph P. Kennedy II, he was a Congressman from Massachusetts for about 12 years, 2) Joseph P. Kennedy III, his son and current Congressman from Massachusetts since 2013, and 3) Patrick J. Kennedy (son of Ted Kennedy) and Congressman from Rhode Island for 22 years.

Please accept "Kennedy" instead of just first names. Every other quiz accepts last names; this one should too. I kept typing it in and nothing showed up.

Funny thing is it only accepts Arnold, not Schwarzenegger. I was expecting it the other way around.

Great Quiz. But why do you accept "Ted" for Edward, but not "Bobby" for Robert?

And why didn't you accept schwarzenegger? - He isn't a Kennedy, so the last name should be accepted.

Does anyone ever read the "instructions" for these quizzes before they make comments about things that have been clearly outlined? The only possible conflict that I see is not accepting Bobby for Robert.

You could also give this reply without being a needless jerk about it.
