Is it just me, or does Obama seem to be, well, not very bright?

Just based on his resume (magna cum laude from Harvard Law, President of Harvard Law Review), Obama is intensely intelligent. He's just not great at campaigning.

Maybe, but I have known a lot of affirmative action types who did not measure up. I worked for a department chair once who could not figure a percentage, even though he was a PhD in sociology.

He wouldn’t be the first magna cum laude idiot.

Given the fact that he's an affirmative action home-run, those facts don't mean a thing.

Smart, maybe. Tone-deaf and out of touch, definitely.

"Anybody gone into Whole Foods lately and see[n] what they charge for arugula?"

Better than any six screens' worth of cogent psycho-politico-historico-socio-economic analysis, that single sentence epitomizes the bottomless and forever unbridgeable chasm separating us, mere mortals, from our anointed betters.
