I have always made the case that IF Obama was so smart we would have seen his transcripts from Oxcidental College, Columbia and Harvard Law. We would have heard how he had a 1400+ score on his SATs. Yet, we heard none of those accomplishments. Remember when we heard about John Kerry was so smart and George W Bush was so dumb. There was a reason for that.
Do not misunderstand me. Obama is not dumb. He is above average intelligence. But he is not on the same level as John Adams, Thomas Jefferson. He is not running things because HE IS A LAZY SLACKER who was promoted because Affirmative Action.
Spot on comments. Especially with regards to his records. Remember, no one from Columbia remembers being any classes with him. Top Dog at the Harvard Law Review, yet not one article, brief or paper with his name on it. Amazing.
As for him having “above average intelligence”, IMHO, he is smart like a con man or shyster. He has above average intelligence in knowing how to scam folks, play the victim, convince the world that he’s black even though he’s not, and can assimilate into whatever environment he finds himself in. For that, sadly, one has to give him credit for. Nothing but a grifter.
But I don’t think he’s smart in being able to critically think and come up with an informed conclusion. Basically, he’s your typical liberal CEO-type. Calls a meeting to discuss a problem. Gets feedback and allows the group to come up with a plan of action. Goes public as if it was his idea. When it fails miserably, he blames everyone else for the failure. Just like CornPop is with virtually everything.
Remember his, Job Creator Panel or whatever he called it. He let the world know he was doing it, never participated in any of it, and they accomplished ZERO.
