What did Bush do to cause you to conclude he is one of our least intelligent Presidents? What did Clinton do to cause you to conclude he is one of our most intelligent Presidents? I'm basing, maybe, 75% of my (most/lease intelligent) observations on verbal cues. I don't think Bush is a quick thinker. I don't see him as clever. I see the guy struggle with word choices, comprehension (and also with his delivery) at press conferences and in interviews. Keeping with interviews ...I don't get the feeling I'm seeing a deep thinker in Bush. Instead, it often appears he's doing more reacting and blocking than thinking and communicating. Clinton seemed to be more of a multi-leveled thinker in those situations. -- Montblack http://lumma.de/mt/archives/bart.gif |

Clinton has always appeared to me to have a bigger engine under the hood - more available horsepower, etc, than Bush. Who's the better driver? Who's got the best pit crew? Who's got the best sponsor deals? g Who's car handles the best in the corners? Who gets the best mileage? Who is the fan favorite? Horsepower is only one aspect of racing. But in that area, Clinton is clearly the winner - if more is better. -- Montblack http://lumma.de/mt/archives/bart.gif |

![]() Clinton seemed to be more of a multi-leveled thinker in those situations. Yes, Clinton and Nixon were without doubt our most intelligent presidents at least since Woodrow Wilson. Interesting that Clinton became the second president to be impeached, and that Nixon resigned in order to avoid impeachment. all the best -- Dan Ford email: see the Warbird's Forum at www.warbirdforum.com and the Piper Cub Forum at www.pipercubforum.com |
