As a Harvard graduate he is certainly intelligent and probably in the top 1% of Americans.
Just to reach the position he is in and to have been elected twice is testimony to his human skills.
The bad press that surrounds him results from a smear campaign of the leftist libs that like to play film footage compilations of some irrelevant errors.They amount to a couple of minutes during a decade under media scrutiny.
History will judge him of sound judgement,determined and a great visionary.
I would venture that most Americans are way above the European average intelligence when compared like for like.
A good test is to watch British and US Marines interviewed by the media in Iraq.
Excluding officers,both these soldiers come from similar backgrounds and opportunity.Yet the British soldiers find it difficult to form a coherent sentence and discuss irrelevant issues.Their American allies of similar rank are bold ,confident,reasoned in response and provide structured accounts of the conflict situation.
I dont expect to be rewarded by the bandwagon riding anti american dummies who couldn't point to it on a map,but I am happy that my answer is truthful and doesn't play to the questioners motives.
