Why the Star Spangled Banner specifically? I get it from a patriotism angle, but it's not exactly a highly relevant or useful text to use to determine someone's ability to use and comprehend the English language. I'm going to guess that many people who know the text more or less by heart and are native English speakers would likely struggle to answer if asked what a "rampart" is.

My slightly facetious post should not be taken as an actual proposal.
(If an immigrant woman, legally here for 25 years and a stay-in-the-home mom can‘t speak English fluently but can pass a written citizenship-test in her own language would get citizenship.)
