Reagan didn't do too bad, being not-so-smart with smart people around. Though it's been a disaster for not so smart (OK, horrifically dumb) Bush with too-smart-for-their-own good cronies.

Ron Paul is the smartest person in the entire government. Re-elected to his congressional district 10X in a row, brilliant, yet understandable. Challenges the wrongs with conviction, unafraid to stare down powers that be. A statesman with brains AND heart. That's what I want, brains and heart.
