I don’t know but his credentials (graduated magna cum laude from Harvard Law School in 1991) and his relaxed, unruffled manner suggests a fair IQ, howbeit on the wrong side of almost every issue. Intelligence doesn’t equal virtue.
Is Obama’s IQ The Highest Certified Of Any President Ever?
As was noted earlier hits morning on Sirius Left, the former
Guidance Counselor of Obama’s private Hawaiian school
has supplied The Washington Post with a certified copy of
Obama’s Stanford-Banai IQ Certification, one of which was taken in 1966 when he was a kindergardener in Hawaii before moving to Indonesia, and one which was taken as entrance protocol as a freshman in his private (extremely exclusive) Honolulu private highschool.
His IQ was clocked at 172 and 166 respectively (IQ’s normally have a fluctuation of 6 or 7 points from test to test so that discrepency is normal).
That puts Obama in the certifiable clinical genius category.
Obama’s campaign is apparently NOT HAPPY about The Washington Post preparing to disclose this, because they fear it adds to his reputation as no an “everyman” and being too “professorial”.
But that aside...if elected, does this make Obama, the retainer of the highest certified IQ of any president in American history?
