No, the dude is clearly wicked smart.
BUT, do you really want to open the republicans up to a discussion of young earth creationism? Seriously? Do you want this to be a debate topic, cause if he is the candidate it will be.
He won't be the candidate, mainly due to being suspect on gun rights.
An honest, forthright answer. I appreciate it.
So, who is going to make this a point in the debates? Is it (in fact) germane to his governance? Why does it even need to be a topic of discussion?
The reality is, this is meme that is entrenched in the Left to indicate lack of intelligence. You and I both know it.
Having read his first book, I think he is a tremendous role model that should be emulated. But no, I personally do not think he has the political skills to survive a primary run much less a general election.

But on a positive note, I will got out on a limb and state (unequivocally I might add) that President Obama is not a young earth creationist.
So he has that going for him.

Of course it is, but it works. The media effectively convinced the American people that George Bush had an IQ below 80 because of the way he pronounced "nuclear" and because he was from Texas. Just imagine how much easier that will be with a candidate when he asks that if we evolved from ape, why are there still apes?
It would be a media bloodbath.
