Sure, why not.
Those of us unimpressed with the Pres are quick to suggest that he's… shall we say, not the sharpest tool in the shed? (Maybe a little slow on the uptake? WOW, you really CAN find anything with Google.)
But most of us are aware that he's probably not dumb, per se… more likely simply "intellectually challenged".

The gist of this is the question of whether or not the President's actually "a dope"… is he as dumb as we joke/sigh/agitate about. The answer he comes up with is, not too surprisingly, no, not really: "The issue might better be described as one of mental laziness."
