[Answer] 6. How many consecutive full terms of office can an elected president of the US serve, under the terms of the Constitution?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "6. How many consecutive full terms of office can an elected president of the US serve, under the terms of the Constitution?"



...1. Two 2. Three 3. One 4. An unlimited number Under the 22nd Amendment to the U.S. Constitution the president can only be re-elected once. There was unease in America when Franklin Roosevelt maintained what was felt by many to be too long a period of office and this Amendment to the Constitution was added in 1951. To amend the Constitution is extremely difficult and requires widespread support. A two thirds majority is required from both houses of Congress (or a special constitutional convention of states) and ratification by three quarters of the states. In theory, a president could serve almost two and a half terms of office. If a vice president were to take office on the death or incapacitation of the previous president with less than half of the four year term left, s/he could serve two more full terms. Hence the use of the phrase "full terms of office" in the question!

[Answer] 5. Mmmm...who among us could refuse a slice of angel food cake. I know I couldn't. Which is NOT a classic ingredient in this delicious dessert?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "5. Mmmm...who among us could refuse a slice of angel food cake. I know I couldn't. Which is NOT a classic ingredient in this delicious dessert?"



...1. Egg whites 2. Flour 3. Sugar 4. Coconut Angel food cake is a type of foam cake with a springy texture. While the origins have never been clearly determined, it is generally believed that the cake followed the invention of the eggbeater in 1865. Because of the large number of egg whites used and the labor required to whip air into the eggs, a lack of an eggbeater to whip the eggs to a stiff froth would make the process extremely difficult. Recipes for snow-drift cake and silver cake found in cookbooks in the 1800s are very similar to later recipes for angel food cake. Like most foam cakes, angel food cakes have a high proportion of eggs to flour and are leavened by the air whipped into the eggs. Because only egg whites are used, the cake has little to no fat. This gives angel food cake it's characteristic light texture and taste. It is customarily made in a tube pan that should be un-greased. A sauce or frosting is often applied to the finished product imbuing it with a little flavor and texture. FUN FACT: As written in the 1883 "The President's Cookbook", angel food cake was a favorite dessert for first lady "Lemonade Lucy" Hayes.
