So I clicked on the HEADLINE link at DRUDGE and it took me to the AP article. On the right side of the article -- a little way down I saw a "linky" that said "Barack Obama's IQ is 130. - Are you smarter than Barack? Take a Free IQ Test and find out."
So I took the test.
The IQ part of the test was sometime a little bit challenging, but I maybe answered them all correct..... but then the offer adds started to pop up - and this part of the test was grueling. I kept my focus up and concentrated real hard.
My reward for working this test is that I have a measured IQ higher than Obama.
Obama's IQ = 130
rface's IQ = 137
I am smarter than Obama I should probably be president.
And mine are also alot better looking.
And Christian.
And born in the USA.
Here that, Wally?
Thank you for taking the Instant IQ Test.
You scored: 150
Your IQ Range is Above 140 and you are EXTREMELY INTELLIGENT.
Congratulations on completing our IQ test! Based on your answers to the test
questions, your IQ is above 140. IQ scores are based on a scale where a score of
100 is the average score. By scoring higher than 100, you have shown that you
have a higher than average intelligence level. Your score range of above 140 is
the highest category and indicates that you are extremely intelligent, so again,
congratulations are in order! Your intelligence level can say a lot about how
you approach life. By having a high score, you are someone who can face their
challenges and often overcome them easily. You look at the world and are able
to make sense of it by fitting together the pieces of the puzzle.
Thank you for taking our fun IQ test!
Now, can I be President even tho sometimes I don’t even know enough to come in out of the rain?
If O’bama were smart, he wouldn’t be a democrat..
LOL!
ROFL
You are engineer?
How does driving train make you smart?
My IQ is 197 .................No thats my weight....I think my IQ is lower.
friendly Ping
LOL.
For one thing, the test itself can only offer a snapshot in time. It cannot factor in one's fatigue or stress levels. All it offers is a snapshot in time.
For another, higher IQ does not necessarily equate to superior leadership. I would be very, very surprised if we ever elected a leader with a measured IQ much higher than 140. Any higher than that, and his/her thought processes deviate too far beyond the definitive norm - the 100 IQ peak of the population bell curve. No, public figures tend to be mouthpieces rather than brains.
I read somewhere that McCain's was measured at 138, FWIW.
But you not a Mack Daddy.
My entire family has IQ’s higher than 140, so we’ll take over the world!
152. Where’s my oval office?
that made my IQ go up
... and usually a come-on for some service, such as a dating site. Its good marketing to use your vanity to hold your attention through the test as the intro to the sales pitch, isn't it?
Mine’s 135...maybe I should be Vice President...
So, I have you beat, mine is 141(has been since about age 16 when I was first tested), therefore I should be President. I would bet many FReepers have IQs far in excess of 130, some up in the 160-180 range and maybe a trifle higher. I would also bet Sarah Palin’s IQ is higher than Obama’s by a good deal.
Test.
Hey, good morning.. :)
And whether Obama has a 50 or 130 or a 200, he is bad for our country.
