Which candidate is more intelligent? Which one is more educated?

Question

It is obvious to me that would be OBAMA!!

What do you think?

Answer 1

McCain is a gibbering oldster who has trouble remembering which foot to put forward.

I'll go Obama.

Answer 2

Yes, but which one is better for America?  Then you get the answer.  Palin.

Answer 3

Obama is both the more educated and intelligent. He graduated near the top of his class at Harvard Law School, which says something. Also, he picked Joe Biden as his runningmate who has had nearly forty years of experience in the Senate and is strong where Obama isn't.

McCain by contrast, graduated near the bottom of his class at Annapolis and selected Sarah Palin, the governor of Alaska who has had little experience in politics. McCain is making a big gamble here that could either make him or break him.

Based on the facts here, it's obvious out of who is more intelligent and educated.

Answer 4

You confuse intelligence with education.

FYI: Bush has TWO degrees- MBA in Business; Yale AND Harvard

LIBERATED 50 MILLION MUSLIMS FROM TYRANNY

Afghanistan free of Taliban Rule

Free Elections in Afghanistan

IRAQ free of murderous dictator

Free Elections in Iraq

Saddam Hussein, a proven supporter of terrorism and a leader who developed and used WMD, is NO LONGER RULING A NATION!

His two murderous sons killed

Zarqawi Dead

75% of known AlQaeda leaders captured or killed

Lybia hands over weapons without a shot being fired

Syria craps its pants and withdraws from Lebanon after 29 years

Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and UAE now allies in fight against terrorism

Ukraine has democratic elections

Egypt has democratic elections with women voting for first time

N Korea gives uop its nuclear program

9/11 Mastermind Kalid Sheik Muhammed awaiting trial

No Major Terrorist Attacks on U.S. Soil Since 9/11

Answer 5

Intelligence has no correlation with education.....so you really do need to remove Odumber from your list.  

Answer 6

I think you're wrong.  Intelligence involves not only what you know but the ability to apply what you know with judgment and discretion.  Obama lacks that quality woefully.

Answer 7

Now that would depend on if you're talking about education from the view of formal educators or from the view of real life experience and education. I guess the answer to this question is above my pay grade.

Answer 8

I still miss Dr. Ron Paul.

Answer 9

Your delusional ! Typical Code Pink type liberal. Your brains must be in your ***

Answer 10

Out of the two major parties Obama did get better grades, but that does not mean that McCain is not smart enough to be president. I personally think that they are both very smart. They are smart enough to keep the democrats and republicans in power and keep the third party out of it all. They sue the third parties for running for president and they constantly break rules in the electoral process. Yet they still manage to get your vote even after they create things like the "patriot act." To me, anyone who gives themselves a nice raise year after year and invades your constitutional rights, and still manages to get you to vote for them is pretty smart.

Answer 11

It is also obvious to me

graduating at the bottom of your class

or knowing about journalism means nothing to me......

Answer 12

Obama all the way... This VP pick is going to bite the GOP in the backside.

Answer 13

Just because he graduated from Harvard doesn't mean he is more capable of running a nation.   You get a college degee today and it means nothing, corporations want experience!

Answer 14

Obama graduated with high honors from Harvard, McCain graduated 5th from the bottom of his class from the Naval Academy. There is no contest. Obama for President!!

Answer 15

Personally I think Obama is more eloquent in his speeches and excels as a communicator. He is very charismatic and has a charming personality. McCain isn't. However, I think he is much more realistic about how to deal with the problems this nation is facing. Therefore in my opinion, McCain is both the obvious and prudent choice for the Presidency.

Answer 16

Intelligence and education - Obama

Character, judgment, integrity and common sense - McCain

Answer 17

I think your "questions" show all too well that you have been duped by the King of Plastic to believe anything that he says.

Sorry - the goal of education is to become wise.  Wisdom comes from life and experience.  (Remember how smart you thought you were at 13?  Same thing.)

There are gifts and talents given to all, and to each is given a gift.  One may be good at book smarts and talking smoothly, while another is not.  I prefer a straight talker, one who has the wisdom from life on their side.  Give me the unpolished and principled to lead our great nation, for when the nation fall to inequity, we know what will happen.

Answer 18

McCain was dumb not picking Hillary for a running mate!

Answer 19

It certainly isn't McCain-Palin.

Answer 20

Intelligence has absolutely nothing to do with formal education.  I have known highly educated people who lack intelligence.  

Socialism is not very intelligent, sorry Obama doesn't qualify in the intelligent category.

Answer 21

In his Naval Academy schooling, John McCain graduated 894 out of 899. He did well in academic subjects that interested him, such as literature and history, but studied only enough to pass subjects he struggled with, such as mathematics.

During his Harvard Law schooling, Obama as selected as an editor of the Harvard Law Review based on his grades and a writing competition.In his second year he was elected president of the Law Review. Obama taught constitutional law at the University of Chicago Law School for twelve years, as a Lecturer for four years (1992–1996), and as a Senior Lecturer for eight years.

While not a qualitative comparison, these are their educational backgrounds. Make of each what you will.

Answer 22

I'd say that is probably right.

However, since his policies are wrong, a potentially efficient Obama is worse, in my opinion, than a bumbling Obama might be.

--

and Pec, I miss him too.  Now THAT was both education and intelligence at work for US.

Answer 23

if he was this smart ,he would be on the supreme court and not running for president.this just proves he failed as a attorney.and he is absolutely the wrong choice as president!

Answer 24

Intelligence, doesn't always mean educated..........

you can be smart, without being BOOK smart, as they say.

Having said that.........McCain backs Bush.

There is no way to do that, and still appear intelligent or educated.

Obama wins, in a no contest.  

Answer 25

Mc Cain was top 5  ....But a shame TOP BOTTOM 5..

But GOP doesn't care like his supportor..

Answer 26

Obama has certainly pulled the wool over a lot of people's eyes, he must be smart to do that.

Answer 27

Obama is wet behind the ears,he might be book smart,but he has no street smarts.Example;,quote"if we put down our weapons,so will the bad guy's"This ain't a rock fight in 2nd grade.He needs some military lessons of strategy.

Answer 28

Obama on both counts

Answer 29

OBAMA OBAMA OBAMA/BIDEN 2008

Answer 30

obvious to me that would be OBAMA

Answer 31

Obama because he knows what the american people need and not McCain or Bush politics.
