Looking For Signs Of Intelligence

Jennifer Rubin addresses what people mean when they talk about Obama's 'intelligence':

It cannot be “emotional intelligence:” that would have prevented him from falling into the ambit of Rezko and Wright. That is to say, he does not demonstrate uncanny judgment of others’ character. It cannot be meant to mean in-depth knowledge: he makes basic factual errors consistently about substantive matters small and large (e.g. the history of presidential summits). It cannot mean the ability to think quickly on his feet. His spontaneous utterances range from medicore to awful.

So perhaps that is just a more politically correct way of saying “articulate.”

Is calling Obama 'articulate' racially condescending?
Or merely revealing.
