In this case you may be right. For instance the C+ in Business Administration may have been an overestimate of his abilities. For instance how many successful private businesses, that were not election related, has he run?
I suspect that its not intelligence, although someone of some intelligence should see when a policy isn't working and try something else. Rather it seems with Bush its more of an absolutist perception of things - black vs white sort of thing, and perserveration - the almost mindless repetition of something. In other words perceptual and control process flaws. larry On Wed, 27 Oct 2004 10:02:49 -0500, G <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > In my opinion, grades are a very poor indicator of overall intelligence, > especially as it applies to real-world productivity. > > I think I'd accept the argument that in comparison to his peers (current > political elite and past presidents), W is in the lower percentile on > intelligence.
