Thank you, Dramamama, although I'd prefer the word "fun."
Many of the statements in this quiz are direct quotes from the historical figures, but yes it's not scientific. If you get Aaron Burr or King George III, we will not think any less of you!

The three most common now are Jefferson ,Washington, and King George!

I got Thomas Jefferson.

Thomas Jefferson is the most common outcome -- as is clear from this board, but also from the stats.
This is a wee bit ironic, since the musical is about Hamilton, and from his point of view, and the two were ideological rivals.

"Anybody get Aaron Burr?"
I did, ironically since he's buried a mile from my house.

Have you been to his gravestone? What's it like?

George Washington.

I got Aaron Burr....I wonder why?

"Have you been to his gravestone? What's it like?"
My third grade class toured the cemetery where Burr is buried, and this is many more years ago than I would like to admit. His gravestone looked like, well, most of the others in the cemetery. Grover Cleveland is also buried in that cemetery, as is Paul Tulane, the "founder" (in an economic sense) of Tulane University. Now his grave memorial is unique. And since I bought plots in that same cemetery, I guess I'll be buried there too some day, as will my wife. I don't think my gravestone will say "RaisedOnMusicals", though.

That's kind of ironic, Hamilton22, no?

Most people are still getting Thomas Jefferson, somewhat ironically.

Not sure what you were expecting. Just because the show is a hit, and people find it interesting, doesn't mean their political ideology would align with his.
On the other hand, it could be the fault of your quiz.

Ironic, because he's the closest thing to an enemy (or at least a rival) to Hamilton in "Hamilton."

Try reading the Ron Chernow. Lin did.

I read it from cover to cover.
Do me a favor -- find a quote from it that expresses her worldview.
