Didn't Uncle Jeb run one of those tests on the Elderly of Florida during the 2000 election with Al Gore/ Bush. I heard Al Gore won Florida, and then "HUH" for some reason the Elderly in Florida weren't competent enough to vote. The Republican media said the Elderly were incompetent of voting when they had voted for 50 years. So yes I think an IQ test should be required to keep the idiots away from politics.

Judging from how you formed your question, I don't think his IQ is the one you should be primarily worried about. There were mass e-mails, that were turned into urban legend about Bush's IQ being the lowest ever, but that was pretty much debunked by snopes. I think when you consider his academic accomplishments, even having high grades than his opponent in the last election, when he was in college, you see that he isn't really a dim guy. Now, if by the whole world means what some guy who couldn't handle a semester at a University of Michigan satellite school in Flint spliced together for film, then you do get a totally different idea. It is totally understandable to come to the conclusion that he's a dope. With an objective eye, looking at what is known about the man as a whole, knowing that when he ran for the Texas House of Representatives, and knowing that he lost because they figured him for a brainiac who would look past the needs of the people he would serve, knowing that he scored a 1206 on his SAT, putting him at about a 129 IQ roughly, I'd say "How much IQ has George Bush got?" isn't what you want to say. You want to say that you want to belong to a group that persecutes without knowledge of facts. Your goal is to feel as though you're making a cogent statement against someone by asking such a half minded question. If you want to ask ant question, ask "Why do I buy into what I am told, and do not seek out the correct information on my own?"

First of all, if he was a chimp, it wouldn't be a gene that he's missing - he'd be missing two chromozomes. That's the difference between humans and chimps.\n\nSecond of all - yes he is retarded. He continually score at the bottom of his subjects throughout his life and it's a known fact that he had to get someone else to take his tests at the Ivy League school he attended so he could graduate. His daddy has basically paid and paved the way for dubbya all of his life. He is part of the christian-right-good-ole-boy network that has always run America. Until Americans stop trusting and voting these people into office, we will always have a christian-based, prejudiced, one-sided, conservative, war-mongoring country.\n\nThat's why I left and no longer live in the land of the fearful and dogmatized.

Well, the rumors were just that...rumors...and while I am not partial to our current President, the low IQ myth was dispelled here:\n\nhttp://www.csbsju.edu/uspp/Bush/Bush-IQ-Myth.html\n\nFurthermore, some reporters did some pretty interesting reporting on the topic here:\n\nhttp://www.csbsju.edu/uspp/Election/bush011401.htm\n\nThe bottom line is that nobody really knows but based on a translation of his SAT scores, they estimate his IQ to be at or around 115

President of the United States? None. There is no education requirement, just age (35), and be a natural born citizen.

I am from Texas.\nMany people think he is.\nI've met him and I assure you that he is not.\n\nHe is smart and well spoken in person.\nHe graduated from a well respected university and is personable in person.\n\nHis policies and political mistakes have made him disliked by most Americans. We are all tired of the war and have the same questions about it expressed by people in other countries.\n\nI hope this answers your question without going off like most people seem to do about him these days.

I don't think it's just a matter of a lack of intelligence. It's also a matter of ignorance and indifference. He is very ignorant about the world around him, and he doesn't care. He's never been made to care about anything, probably because he has always had everything (even the presidency) handed to him on a silver platter. He's never had to face any real challenges like most of us have, so there has never been anything to really build his character.

That's a difficult question to answer as I don't believe there is a uniform standard of intelligence tests that existed for all US Presidents.  Thus, as it may seem to many in this generation that George W. Bush is stupid, it may be that he is not the least intelligent of the bunch.  Other presidents have, in their time, made their own errors.  William Henry Harrision died of a cold, and William Howard Taft got stuck in a bathtub.

Legally, someone born in another country cannot run for President of the US.
