What in the Hell are you talking about? No body on this forum could out smart Ben Stein. He was a Rhodes Scholar, recived a perfect score on his SAT's and has an IQ of about 190.
His slow talking personality is just an act, he is acctually quite interesting to hear speak. I've heard a few speeches by him.
Your right, what I meant to say is his borring personality would be a weakness. But I never said he wasnt extremley intelligent. Could I beat him? Of course not. But I wouldnt fear him like I would some of the others on this list.
