Is Obama Stupid?
cfp ^ | 3/26/14 | a caruba

No one gets elected President by being stupid, unless of course the election is stolen in cities controlled by the Democratic Party, but one must also factor in the intelligence of nearly half of the voters who pull the Democratic Party lever no matter who the candidate may be.

America is seriously divided between liberals and conservatives, but there are indications that even those who self-identify as liberals are having second thoughts as the result of the havoc ObamaCare has inflicted on their lives and the economy. Voters who self-identify as “independents” are the deciding factor in most elections. They reflect disenchantment with both parties.

I have been thinking about whether Obama is stupid because he has been in Europe with the leaders of the nations who are grappling with the seizure of Crimea by Russia. I keep wondering, given his record at this point, whether they too think he’s stupid. He has taken the most powerful and respected nation in the world and reduced it to ridicule and disdain. When he leaves the room do they shake their head and roll their eyes?

The question of whether Obama is stupid would seem to be disputed by the fact that he is a Harvard Law School graduate and one has to have some degree of intelligence to navigate that. His undergraduate college is Columbia University, one of the most liberal in the nation. In neither case do we know how Obama did academically because he took care to have his records kept from public review.

Indeed, most public records regarding his life, including his birth certificate have been kept hidden. The one he provided has been deemed a forgery. There are claims as well that his Social Security number is questionable.

We need the bear in the woods picture here I suspect.

No, Obama is NOT stupid. He is very, very good at keeping his motives and plans hidden. Part of his plan is to encourage people to think he is stupid.

No. He is evil. The people who are behind him hate and have hated the United States of America for what it represented and stood for. They ran him ran for the purpose of destroying the United States of America as it then was should he be elected. The voters of America were more happy to give him that opportunity. Thus it can be said that those who voted for him also hate the United States of America and want it destroyed. And he is doing exactly that.

I don’t believe he’s stupid; I believe everything is going according to plan. I do believe everyone who voted for him is stupid...especially those who voted for him twice!

"No one gets elected President by being stupid"

Jimmy Carter.

Remember, half the population has an IQ below 100.

I think his belief system and philosophy are stupid, but I don't think he's stupid. He's been remarkably successful getting almost everything he's after.

What is stupid is thinking he sees the world the same way as the words he uses to gain support and votes implies.

He doesn't and that should have been obvious long ago. He isn't running the same inner software as what was once traditional American thought.

He's intelligent, but not of US and doesn't think like we once did.

Quite a transformation so far.

I became a Christian in 1981 and started attending an assembly of God church. I was shocked to discover that one of the young married couples there were big carter supporters and bugged by Reagan’s election. I thought, how can you be a conservative and be in favor of a democrat.

And then I remembered something that was not big on my radar before that: Carter was the “Christian” candidate.

Interestingly, I learned in that same church that one of the meanings of using the Lord’s name in vain is using your Christianity for personal gain, e.g. putting the Christian fish on your business card.

You can have motives without being smart. Obama is not very smart, as intelligent. He has proved that over and over.

An Interesting Quote

“The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president.

The problem is far deeper and much more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president.”

People used to ask me if Obama was the antichrist. I told them either he’s as stupid and incompetent as he appears, and he will go down historically, or he IS the beast of revelation, which will require God’s overt involvement to break him.

Either way, he’ll go down hard in the end.

In those famous words...”What difference does it make”

What’s the difference between being stupid and acting stupid!

I’ve said since 2008 that the problem is not Obama. The problem is the electorate.

No, Obama is NOT stupid

Sure he is. Why did he "go black" if he would've gotten ahead without the favoritism handed to blacks? Have you ever heard him speak humorously, or expressing a world view that considers various aspects of an issue, or expressing a solution to a problem beyond being a bully?

What he's not is a black American descendent of slaves who was disadvantaged by his background. He's a taker, and a manipulator, and an excuse maker, and he seems to have no higher moral ground....he's stupid.

Voters who self-identify as “independents” are the deciding factor in most elections.

Romney easily won the independent vote in 2012.
