I wonder how smart someone like John Kerry really is?

I mean, if you sat him down in front of a page of logic puzzles how would he do? I have a hard time believing he would do really well although I could be wrong.

It seems like the main qualifications for a politician are political sense and looking good in a suit. But I don't disagree. Most people who make it to president have to be reasonably smart.
