You've made your point that superior intelligence (oops, unfortunate word choice, in this administration), is a disadvantage in a leader. These are my alternatives? I'm unaware that either Carter or LBJ are your "alternatives." I'll take GWB. He understood that after something like 911, you kick ** and take names.* Maybe taking names should come before the kicking ass part? That way, you could be concentrating on kicking the right ass, post 9/11.

THAT was not even a good week in Vietnam when that genius LBJ led us into his swamp. He was so smart, he couldn't figure that you either don't fight a war or you FIGHT TO WIN. Minor correction. It was JFK led us into the swamp. LBJ took us in deeper. I've always maintained that if JFK had not been martyed, history would have treated him far less kindly.
