"for all his (presumed) intelligence and education."

There, fixed that for ya.

Al Gore is probably the smartest, best educated of recent candidates and might even have made a good president. He did a good job as VP from all reports. It worries me how he seemed to have lost it for a while there after he lost his bid, but that's just a casual observation from someone with no special info sitting in his basement in Chicago.

If intelligence and education where what it took we could give a test. Aside from intelligence and education not being consistent predictors of good leadership, we seem to settle for the appearance of intelligence and attendance at a good school as proxy for the real things.
