Ron Paul's IQ?
Don't know, but he is the OLDEST and the WISEST of those running for POTUS.

I'll be truly geeky and say - on what scale? There are numerous accepted IQ scales.
130-140 on some would be 140-150 on others.
Also as an aside, you don't need high math skills for an IQ test. Typically IQ tests don't rely on 'learned' information. Being bad at jeopardy or trivial pursuit shouldn't have any effect on the outcome of an IQ test. If you see an IQ test that asks for the capital of a country, or asks you the first derivative of a function stop bothering, it's not a real test. Something along the lines of http://www.mensa.org/index0.php?page=12 is good
With that said, I think Ron Paul has to have a higher IQ. Considering his age - with IQ drops normal in the later years - I'd say he's one smart cookie.

Well I'm thinking if you add Bush's IQ and McCains IQ and then maybe multiply how many years we've been in this stinking war you might have a IQ of about 135ish.
As to a good karma rating... Dr. Paul's up there.
Dick Chaney has a negative karma rating so low... he ( fill in the blanks yourself ) _________ !

Any guess made by anyone here is a completely UNeducated guess.

Impossible! Are you saying that Bush is 208 IQ points smarter than Ron Paul?

In other blatantly obvious news, actual results may vary, in case of severe dizziness, bleeding or chest pain see your doctor, breakable items or items with small, detachable parts aren't suitable for young children, cancer is bad, violation of laws could result in prosecution, fines and/or imprisonment, use of a product in a manner for which it wasn't designed may result in unintended consequences, fire can be hazardous to your health and result in severe injury or death, and voting for more neocons could result in more war, death, pain, suffering and the occasional outbreak of diahrrea.
