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.

So good speaker/lousy policy beats poor speaker/sound policy?

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.

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.

You might want to read THE ILLUSION OF VICTORY: America in World War I, by
Thomas Fleming to dispel yourself of that myth about Wilson.
