Was Obama really that 'intelligent'?

This deifying of Obama's intellect is farcical.
If his intellect was in the stratosphere and we poor mortals
were just too intellectually uncouth to absorb his high mindedness, then surely the fault lies with the teacher, Obama. But let us look at the evidence: The Obama's appeared starry eyed around Hollywood types, (always a measure of stupidity) and gladly trousered their 'donations'. And the stranger than fiction Dad Obama allowing his daughter to be an Intern with a 'Hollywood' Foundation' and Michelle Obama referring to Harvey Weinstein as a '...wonderful human being' Oops. 'Such naive, starry eyed stupidity beggars belief. If Obama was so smarts why did he not rein in his wife and her simplistic gushings of  'We go high while you go low'; if so smart surely advise your partner against doing the Karaoke spot on television with James Corden because it offends the dignity of office? (Alright call me a cultural snob). But you have to be really 'educated' (Harvard/Princeton) to be that stupid.  There is something profoundly unattractive in the measured guile of the 'educated'; the 'talkers'. The US voters saw beneath the faux sincerity, the protective cordon sanitaire which such 'educated' types build to section themselves off, 'Only connect' E M Forster urged. if only the oh so intelligent
Obama had heeded that, but he didn't connect and the US Electorate finally realised it, which is evidence of how long blinkered misunderstanding of what 'intelligence' is, takes.
