We used:
Cliff Notes American Government
The Idiot's Guide to American Government
Official CLEP Guide
Peterson' s Practice Test
In addition, she reads the Wall Street Journal daily, and there is a great deal of politics discussed around the kitchen table. So, going into the junior year of High School, she has 9 credits through CLEP

Capella Loser encouraging his 15yr old to go the easy route, cheating, and saving daddy money. If a 15yr old can cram and pass the clep, admittedly without preparing enough, is the CLEP really college level ?
So much for RA Gold standards...Who else do we know that got entire degrees this way?
There's several directions one can go with this but you get my point.
