LOVENSTEIN INSTITUTE


Presidential IQ Report


July 9, 2001 | WASHINGTON --In a report published Monday, the Lovenstein Institute of Scranton, Pennsylvania detailed its findings of a four month study of the intelligence quotient of President George W. Bush. Since 1973, the Lovenstein Institute has published its research to the education community on each new president, which includes the famous"IQ" report among others.

According to statements in the report, there have been twelve presidents over the past 50 years, from F. D. Roosevelt to G. W. Bush who were all rated based on scholarly achievements, writings that they alone produced without aid of staff, their ability to speak with clarity, and several other psychological factors which were then scored in the Swanson/Crain system of intelligence ranking. The study determined the following IQs of each president as accurate to within five percentage points:

147 Franklin D. Roosevelt (D)
132 Harry Truman (D)
122 Dwight D. Eisenhower (R)
174 John F. Kennedy (D)
126 Lyndon B. Johnson (D)
155 Richard M. Nixon (R)
121 Gerald Ford (R)
175 James E. Carter (D)
105 Ronald Reagan (R)
98 George H. W. Bush (R)
182 William J. Clinton (D)
91 George W. Bush (R)

The six Republican presidents of the past 50 years had an average IQ of 115.5, with President Nixon having the highest IQ, at 155. President G. W. Bush was rated the lowest of all the Republicans with an IQ of 91.

The six Democrat presidents had IQs with an average of 156, with President Clinton having the highest IQ, at 182. President Lyndon B. Johnson was rated the lowest of all the Democrats with an IQ of 126.

No president other than Carter (D) has released his actual IQ, 176. Among comments made concerning the specific testing of President GW Bush, his low ratings were due to his apparent difficulty to command the English language in public statements, his limited use of vocabulary (6,500 words for Bush versus an average of 11,000 words for other presidents), his lack of scholarly achievements other than a basic MBA, and an absence of any body of work which could be studied on an intellectual basis.

The complete report documents the methods and procedures used to arrive at these ratings, including depth of sentence structure and voice stress confidence analysis."All the Presidents prior to George W. Bush had a least one book under their belt, and most had written several white papers during their education or early careers..

Not so with President Bush," Dr. Lovenstein said."He has no published works or writings, so in many ways that made it more difficult to arrive at an assessment. We had to rely more heavily on transcripts of his unscripted public speaking."

The Lovenstein Institute of Scranton Pennsylvania think tank includes high caliber historians, psychiatrists, sociologists, scientists in human behavior, and psychologists. Among their ranks are Dr. Werner R. Lovenstein, world-renowned sociologist, and Professor Patricia F. Dilliams, a world-respected psychiatrist. This study was commissioned on February 13, 2001, and released on July 9, 2001, to subscribing member universities and organizations within the education community.

-->>Wofür steht das W. (middle name) in Namen?
>Zusatzfrage: woher ist es abgeleitet?

Das W. steht für

Walker. Es ist übrigens nicht Vorname, sondern Nachname. Die Mutter des 41. Präsidenten George Herbert Walker Bush hieß"Dorothy Walker".

Man erinnere sich an Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Der hat auch einfach den Namen der Mutter"Delano" weitergeführt.

Die Walker-Linie ist allerdings nicht besonders bedeutend.

Durch den Ahnenschwund bedingt, ist Bush ein später Nachfahre des englischen Königs Eduard I Plantagenet, genannt"Longshanks", der seine schwerste militärische Niederlage am 11.9.1297 in der Schlacht bei der Stirling-Brücke gegen den schottischen Freiheitskämpfer Wallace erlitt. Longshanx ist ein Nachkomme von Wilhelm dem Eroberer.

Der Brockhaus resümiert:"Gegen Ende seiner Regierungszeit mehrten sich die Probleme, die E. in den Jahren 1297 und 1300 zu verfassungsrechtlichen Zugeständnissen (u.a. Pflicht des Königs, bei Besteuerungsmaßnahmen geundsätzlich die Zustimmung der Betroffenen einzuholen) nötigten."

Von seinem Ahnherrn erbt Bush also nicht nur die fiscal prudence (Halbierung der Dividenden-Steuern), sondern auch allfällige Finanz-Probleme, die im Zusammenhang mit einer kriegerischen Gesinnung stehen.

aus der Encyclopedia britannica:

"Edward's efforts to finance his wars in France and Scotland strained his relationship with the nobility by instituting both income and personal property taxes. Meetings of the King's Great Council, now referred to as Parliaments, intermittently included members of the middle class and began curtailing the royal authority. Parliament reaffirmed Magna Carta and the Charter of the Forest in 1297, 1299, 1300, and 1301; it was concluded that no tax should be levied without consent of the realm as a whole (as represented by Parliament)."
