At some point it was pointed out that George W. Bush DID have a higher IQ than John Kerry. As far as I know, this did not affect anyone’s judgment of him in the slightest. The people who liked him still liked him. The people who thought he was an idiot still thought he was an idiot in the ways that actually mattered.
He did, but they also both took military officer aptitude tests, which are essentially IQ tests. Bush took the Air Force one, Kerry took the Navy one- so you can’t compare scores directly- but it’s most likely that Bush had a slightly higher IQ.
