Sadly, no. But considering that most people are probably more television oriented, it makes sense. (Do stick with it at least until you get to the Martin Sheen question...and read the answers very carefully. It probably could have been a tricky question for many people.)
I'm not so sure that it makes sense. I mean, inability to recognize political figures' faces would likely come from either a) complete inattention to news, or b) getting news from mostly text sources rather than mostly video sources. Which means you're either significantly less, or significantly more, informed about the things that matter in voting. Matching names to jobs might be a useful test; matching faces to names is not.
Also, the entertainer questions, including Martin Sheen, were one point each for identification/job, while the important political figures were 8-10 points each. So identifying Martin Sheen as the president wouldn't lose you much.
