Obama is the Poster Boy for what happens when you try to educate someone beyond their native intelligence.

Education commences at the mother’s knee and other joints.

For a man who is supposedly from Hawaii to say “57 states” is doubly weird.

""I've now been in 57 states; I think, one left to go." Where does such a bizarre mistake come from?"

There are 57 states in the Organization of Islamic Countries.

Uneducated? Depends on the education we’re talking about. He certainly spanked half the US to win two elections in a row. Obviously he knows something.

Being dismissive and trivializing an opponent leads to underestimating them and losing. We did just that.

That's the thing about this Obama guy (if that's his real name), he takes credit for things that rightly belong to others (i.e., taking out bin Laden) or that are completely untrue (improved economy, job creation) yet he can't actually point to anything, ANYTHING, in his life that is an irrefutable success.

The only people we know of that have ties to him, he downplays the association (Bill Ayers, Jeremiah Wright) or coyly omits the association (referring to Frank Marshall Davis cryptically as "Frank" in his AUTO-BIOGRAPHY).

Oh. My fave Obama pronouncement: declaring Hawaii to be a part of Asia at an AIPAC meeting a few years ago.

Is there anybody he looks up to as a mentor who ISN'T of ill repute?

"Obama is the Poster Boy for what happens when you try to educate someone beyond their native intelligence."

I'm sorry, Iron, but your statement somehow has racism written all over it, unless I totally misunderstand what you are trying to say. Exactly what do you mean by "native intelligence"?

I believe that the article is speaking of "learned intelligence" rather than "native intelligence"

1. Existing in or belonging to one by nature; innate: native ability.
2. Being such by birth or origin: a native Scot.
3. Being one's own because of the place or circumstances of one's birth: our native land.
4. Originating, growing, or produced in a certain place or region; indigenous: a plant native to Asia.

How could he possibly be educated?

By his own admission he was in a drugged stupor through high school. He flunked out of Occidental. No one remembers him at Columbia. And then he graduates from Harvard Law with honors? Yeah right.

Where are the fellow students at Harvard gasping about his intellect, impressed about his participation in their study group or even seeing him in a class?

Wasn’t he the editor of the Harvard Law Review?

And I am also curious as to how his students rated him as a Constitutional Law Lecturer at the University of Chicago...

Perhaps constantly smoking “choom” as a youth fried more than a few brain cells.

There are so many outrageous things Obama has said (slandering other people) and so many other stupid things (Navy corpseman, etc.), that I’m willing to cut him slack on the 57 states gaffe. He may have meant to say 47, since he went on to say he had one left to go—thinking in terms of the 48 states other than Alaska and Hawaii, neither of which he had any reason to campaign in.

Pot use during teen years has been demonstrated to inhibit physical brain development in a period just when the brain is undergoing most of its restructuring since birth.

That barry and his boys were saturated with the stuff explains a lot about the little islamist right there.

By “uneducated” they must mean smarter than the GOP, McCain, Romney, and over half of the population.

“Wasn’t he the editor of the Harvard Law Review?”

No one remembers how he got that and he never wrote any articles as expected of the editor. He did nothing but carry the title.
