The indirect evidence is there... but who knows, Id guess his IQ is around 120-130~.. certainly smart, but not a genius by any definition.
What I posted came to around 116. I won't quibble with your assessment, though. Nonetheless, it is certainly not impressive.

In the end its just a number someone with an IQ of 110 could easily be a better leader than a 150. And oft easier to control

And maybe harder to control?
At this point it should be eminently clear that no matter his IQ Obama is a shitty leader. But that wasn't my point. My point was about the fawning sycophants who foisted this empty suit cunt on his under the false rubric that he is brilliant. He isn't. Not only is he not a leader, nor has he ever done anything but apply for jobs, but he is most certainly no genius. Hence the fraud allegations.

Nonsense. You're one of the most out-of-control posters here.

You are confusing Harvard undergrad with Harvard Law. Harvard undergrad they practically hand you good grades. Harvard Law is fiercely competitive and rising to the top 33%+ is extremely difficult.
Obama went there a long time ago when 76% of the students graduated with honors. It is much easier to get through it than it is to get in it, unless..........Quote:
Also, the SAT's? seriously? What a useless test
Bullshit. They are an excellent predictor of college success and about as good an IQ test as there is.
Yes that is true, however he didn't graduate cum laude, he graduated magna cum laude. It's unclear to me what percentile that would put Obama in, but I would imagine at least in the top 50. You underestimate how competitive law school is I think, I imagine his ranking placed him in actuality in the top 1/3 though I cant seem to find this data. From what I can find it seems they altered the policy and now its top 10% graduate magna cum laude. I dont know what it was back then but your argument that it's not impressive is pretty laughable to be honest.
As for the SAT
