Of course not. Every fact gets filtered through your thoroughly partisan brain. GPA: doesn't matter if at Democrat's is higher, but is significant if a Republican's is.

Again, I trust standardized tests as an accurate measure of IQ. Oh, BTW, McCain was given and IQ test as part of his post POW treatment. "Included in the records is a 1984 IQ test. His score, 133, would rank him among the most intelligent Presidents in history." http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,992860,00.html 133 is pretty high. With this information, I'd be willing to bet that McCain is smarter than Obama.

How many graduate students not in the sciences have published single author articles? Answer, essentially none.

At which point, IQ tests will become irrelevant to you. :-) -- Alan Baker Vancouver, British Columbia <http://gallery.me.com/alangbaker/100008/DSCF0162/web.jpg>

These campaigns we have had the last couple of decades really are tame in comparison to the ones 100 to 150 years ago. Politics is a really dirty business. Always has been and always will be. There is too much money at stake for those who gain control and their supporters. |
