32. Who is the Commander in Chief of the military?
American Government · System of Government
Accepted answer(s)
- the President
USCIS officers ask this on the 2008 Civics Test because understanding "american government" is core to how the U.S. system works day to day. Memorize the exact answer above rather than a paraphrase — officers accept the wording USCIS publishes, and "the President" is the safest phrasing to say out loud in the interview.
This is question 32 of the 2008 Civics Test. See it on uscis.gov.
