One thing for sure. Not Bush
Report: President Bush Has Lowest IQ of All Presidents of Past 50 Years.
Among comments made concerning the specific testing of President G. W. 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.
The smartest person in the world is: World-famous physicist Stephen Hawking.

smartest people in the world are those who speak the most languages I think.
Pope Benedict XVI, current head of the Roman Catholic Church, speaks at least ten languages (his native German, Italian, French, English, Spanish, Portuguese, and ecclesiastical Latin among them).
Pope John Paul II, former head of the Roman Catholic Church, learned as many as eleven languages during his lifetime, including Latin, Hebrew, Greek, Spanish, French, Italian, German, English, Portuguese, his native Polish, and also had some facility with Russian.
James Joyce - famous Irish writer, spoke English, French, Spanish, Italian, German, Danish, Norwegian, Russian, Latin and classical Greek, as well as Dutch, Slovenian, Croatian and Irish.
István Dabi, Hungarian translator, translated from 103 languages

Stephan Hawking of England, he has Lou Gehrig's disease and is totally paralyzed but, speaks with a pc activated monitor. His I.Q. can't be measured it's so high. Most of his theories are on space. A.Einstein was his mentor.
