"Who was the Xth president?" questions wouldn't be in the spirit of getting the idiots to not vote. Those sorts of questions are loaded with bias and are more like useless and biased trivia only a select few would know. You've still got idiots who know the presidents forward and back and the good voters who do too. This just means you're just cutting down the numbers of both good and bad voters. Informed voters are good. Sheeple are bad. So we need questions that would weed out the sheeple and illustrate knowlege of government workings.

"What are the branches of government?" is a good question, but too simple. I would have several questions relating to the offices of the government. "What does the executive office do?" or "How long can the president use troops to invade before needing approval from congress?" or "Can the _______ do _______?" are questions which do not have a bias towards any party.
