Has there ever been a Republican President the left did *not* insist was

Ike was not dumb but I'm too young to remember his press
coverage. I do remember Nixon's, he was accused of a lot of
things but not stupidity.

Eisenhower was generally presented as an amiable, likelble, old guy,
with no real grasp of teh complications of medern society.

So essentially the same thing, moderated to reflect the risks in slating a
war hero.

So both Bushes, Reagan, Ford, and Ike were all "dumb". So how smart, I
wonder, does the average Dem think Johnson, Carter, and Clinton were?
