I remember when Chelsea was in about 8th grade. Ex42 said that he could no longer help her with her math because he had not had room in his schedule for "higher math" when he had been in school. I interpreted that to mean that he had not gone beyond Geometry...at the most. His transcripts have never been revealed. He is a genius at politics and self-promotion. That's the extent of his thinking skills.
This is the first time I have heard of the Bill Press Show. Is it radio, TV or a funny name for a blog?
"the New York Times had a piece just prior to the 2004 elections showing an expert on IQ testing believes ... Al Gore's [IQ is] about 115."
On a slightly different track, as I recall, poor old AlGore Jr. was a legacy admission to Harvard, where he excelled at being quite stupid. Among other things, he made a D in elementary physics and his classmates tagged him with the nickname "Bonehead." I also understand that it almost broke AlGore Sr. to keep the kid in school.
Bill has/had a great memory and that was it.
No understanding the data, just memorized it.
Yes. He is great at politics.
