Bush usually doesnt do to well in canned situationd like the State of the Union, but he is a master at speaking to live crowds that react to him, if you ever watch him speak at a rally and then watch him speak to the congress there is a mile of difference.

The dumbest people are often those who try to impress you with their brains and big words.And it's easy to win a debate if you are brazen enough to lie.

Never judge a persons IQ by the way they talk...
Also, IQ varies dramatically in many individuals depending upon what area of intellect you look at... you can have a language IQ above 150 and a math IQ of 100 for instance.
We don't test properly... all areas are lumped together and the score averaged.
I'd say GWB has a language IQ of 100 and a strategery IQ of about 170 ;-)

Victor Davis Hanson put it nicely in his October 22 article...
...Thus while Kerry does well in debates, he in some sense does not do well, since Americans feel he is either their smug professor or cranky grandfather, peeved that he had to descend from Olympus to impart knowledge to the less gifted. Somehow most would rather be wrong with Bush than right with Kerry.
... the Democrats nominated two [lawyers] to lead their ticket. Lawyers capital is their verbiage, but in wartime talk pales before action; and when a John Edwards hits the campaign trail, his glibness sounds mellifluous for the first minute, aggravating by the second, and unctuous, if not nauseating, the third.
... Quite simply, the Democrats forgot that their candidates must convince voters, not juries, and that good vocabularies and speaking cadences dont equate to consistent, commonsense toughness in the face of terrorists.

Clinton came out of the womb thinking of the presidency.
Not really a good thing.

You believed Clinton when he claimed to be so smart? Are there any numbers to back it?
The best brilliant people I've met have always been down to earth and self-deprecating because they are truly self-confident. Lesser people always mistake it for yokelism because they just don't get it.

Go to a Mensa meeting. When you leave, you'll be glad that none of those people are likely to be president.
The President must be strong, decisive, and principled. And mentally stable. Bush has all those qualities. As a secondary feature, it's nice if the President is smart. In Bush's case, he is smart -- so that's a plus. But I don't think it's a requirement.
PS As a member of Mensa, I feel I have a right to poke fun at the odd ducks who usually attend Mensa meetings.

His SAT scores are good but would not have put him at Yale if not for his lineage.Perhaps. That seems to happen pretty often. College applications ask about the parents.

You could see him, during the debates, searching to recover the necessary lines from his script.

Just my observation: I think Clinton has a very high IQ and is simultaneously an underachiever. Read the Dick Morris book to see what I mean.

"Can I get me an IQ Test here"? Sure! This is not a trick question and has been around forever and has a non-humorous answer. What's the connection between space shuttle and a horse's ass?

Some people don't get beyond that "teenage" stage.
