NP but think of GR (Nixon) & Vineland (Bush Sr.)

[Doug Millison]

DH: What's the biggest misperception the public has of Dubya? 
MCM: That he's a moron -- and a benign moron at that. Although Bush is
indeed illiterate, bone-ignorant and generally illogical, he's not a cretin.
At the nastier kind of politics, he is extraordinarily shrewd. In this he is
a lot like Richard Nixon, who, as I argue, is his spiritual father. Bush
only benefits from his wide comic reputation as a genial idiot (he's neither
genial nor an idiot). So we "misunderestimate" him at our peril.
