He's not. He's not stupid--but there's nothing in his record or recent revelations to suggest he's an intellectual giant.

The media/our culture mistakes wealth for qualities not in evidence.

'They can be a great people, Kal-El; they wish to be. They only lack the light to show the way. For this reason above all, their capacity for good, I have sent them you... my only son.'
