Some people dont want a President who is seen as an Intellectual? I wonder why? Why do people think they want someone that is just like them? Why not support for someone who may be smarter than themselves? My guess is fear. They fear being taken out of their comfort zone. At the same time, how many people shoot animals from helicopters?
I'd say there's a difference between being highly educated and being smart - they don't necessarily go hand in hand. For example, our current President, if one goes by college diplomas, is highly educated. And dumb as a box of rocks.
Obama is highly educated, and also smart. It will be nice, and good for the country, to once again have a smart person in the Oval Office.
Intellectuals don't have the common sense that God gave a goose! No, he is not smarter than me, he's just a smart alec Afro-American. How well we know his kind!
And you do? Again, Rolling Stone is rather known for it's investigative journalism.
Yes, Zig Zag Vs. EZ Wider test results is teriffic investigative journalism. Does Bruce Springstein really take it up *************** ala Barney Fwannnnk? Buy next months issue and be sure.
Obama doesn't take notes? Um, I think you need to go back and watch videos from the debates. He most certainly DOES.
WHICh is accepted and completely acceptable. He's a LAWYER. You are supposed to take notes during a debate to organize your next thoughts.
Not taking notes would be ridiculous.

You need to tell that to the simpleton he was telling that to. Try and keep up.

"A smart alec Afro-American"???? "How well we know his kind!"?????
Did you REALLY just write that?
Ohhh yes those smart alec Afro americans! What a troublesome bunch they are!!
You know you just came off as a HUGE racist, right?
Wait, are you the woman at that McCain rally that said "I can't trust him he's he's, he's an arab! he's an arab!"
For the record, based on your post, I think he probably IS smarter than you.
The majority, though not all, of Republicans are uneducated so naturally they fear intellectuals.
Majoring in philosophy or art doesn't make one an intellectual. Most criminals are democrats. Democrat party is comprised of poor people. Republicans are known for upper-middle to upper class. I'd say republicans have the monopoly on intelligence in this country.

I'm "keeping up" just fine darlin.
i did quote the poster because of their point of view, but my response was directed at anyone who thought writing notes at debates was a bad thing.
How about you unbunch your panties and try to be a little more respectful?

My post was generally directed, for the benefit of WHOEVER thought otherwise.
