Bush is dim, but genuine; dim presidents leave him alone
Ultimately, the problem was simply this: Al Gore came across as a phony, and George W. Bush came across as genuine. And after eight years of being lied to by one of the smartest men on the planet, a lot of people had decided they wanted a president
with neither the inclination nor the brains to mislead them.
I’ll be honest, I like my presidents to be a little dim. The clever ones get bored and try to tamper with my life. Give me a mildly clueless figurehead who will leave me alone.
