I hear you, but I seriously wonder about objectivity and grades when a "student" is famous -or comes from a family who donates millions. I mean, if you were a college teacher, would you flunk a kid of Bill Gates ? Only if someone was crazy.

It was about IQ in 2000, until it was released that Gore flunked out of seminary. It was about IQ in 2004, until it came out that Kerry's grades were worse than Bush's grades at Yale.

In politics perception is half the game, or 3/4ths, and PB hit it even if,yes, his article isn't strictly objective. I thought the common knowledge was that GWB was a diplomatic disaster and that with Obama's sophisticated world view and diplomatic finesse bolstered by his personal charm America's place in the world would quickly improve. That seemed to be the view of some in this forum. I mean, the guy is brilliant! The opposite might prove to be true. I don't think Obama is quite living in reality (although I am sure he's learning that by now). He's not up for the job, period. I guess it's not really about IQ after all. // Lennart _______________________________________________ Centroids mailing list: [email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) _http://radicalcentrism.com/mailman/listinfo/centroids_radicalcentrism.com_ (http://radicalcentrism.com/mailman/listinfo/centroids_radicalcentrism.com) Archives at _http://radicalcentrism.org/pipermail/centroids_radicalcentrism.com/_ (http://radicalcentrism.org/pipermail/centroids_radicalcentrism.com/) _______________________________________________ Centroids mailing list: [email protected] http://radicalcentrism.com/mailman/listinfo/centroids_radicalcentrism.com Archives at http://radicalcentrism.org/pipermail/centroids_radicalcentrism.com/
