What do you think? And before going for the obvious answer, have a think about it, do you genuinely think one can become a politician and not be intelligent?
Compared to what appears to be the average american, I guess not. Compared to, say, the Founding Fathers, about 95% of them are idiots. I hate the anti-intellectualism trend in modern politics.
What exactly are you basing this on? I know it's cool to pretend that the founding fathers were these mythological demigods, but they were just politicians too. It's not like they had some supernatural form of intelligence that no longer exists.
Every elected official should go through testing of knowledge and intelligence. Testing on finance, math skills, US government, world governments, history, negotiations, business operations.... etc. This is while running for office. The test scores would be available to view for everyone.
Yes but one of them was Ben Franklin, he has invented the lightning rod, which is still used all around the world to this day.
What did your currently existing politician invent?
