JG Caesarea Middle East IQ Test, Question No. 5: "What Do President Obama and Chauncey Gardiner Have in Common?"

Are you more intelligent than President Obama?

No, you still can't reply in the affirmative inasmuch as you tried answering Questions 1-4 of the patented JG Caesarea Middle East IQ Test and failed miserably. Well, here's your chance once again to redeem yourself. Yesterday, I called President Obama and asked him question no. 5, and he reached the wrong answer, so if you respond correctly, you can announce to the entire world, "I'm smarter than the president of the United States!"

Ready? Excited? Let's begin . . .

You've certainly seen the movie "Being There", starring Peter Sellers, Shirley MacLaine and Melvyn Douglas, which was adapted from Jerzy Kosinski's 1971 novella.

You've also witnessed President Obama's human rights record since his inauguration and his unwillingness to confront dictators in the Middle East, Africa and Asia.

So are you ready for the JG Caesarea Middle East IQ Test, Question No. 5? Here it comes:

What Do President Obama and Chauncey Gardiner Have in Common?

As in the past, you have 10 seconds to respond. Not enough time? You think I care? . . . . Finished writing? Pencils down!

What? You answered that they both never received Oscars? Peculiar! That's exactly the same answer I received from Obama. Did you also call him this morning and ask for the question? Were you trying to cheat? I like that, but as in prior exams, it doesn't earn you points.

The correct answer to Question No. 5?:

Both President Obama and Chauncey Gardiner "like to watch".

You still think your "Oscar" answer was correct? Rubbish! After all, JG Caesarea predicts that Obama will ultimately be awarded an Oscar. What's that you say? He's not an actor? Well, Obama never brought peace anywhere on the globe, yet he was still awarded a Nobel Prize, and JG Caesarea promises you that an Oscar will ultimately grace his mantel.

So now you have failed to answer correctly the first five questions of the patented JG Middle East IQ Test. Sorry, did I hear you correctly? Is there something else you can give me to earn a passing score? Sorry, the patented JG Middle East IQ Test remains incorruptible, unless maybe . . .

You're obviously growing wise to the ways of the Middle East, and it shows initiative on your part, but let's not go down that route for now. Answer correctly Question No. 6 in the not too distant future, and you will be able to declare once and for all that you are smarter than President Obama!

  1. Not so fast, please. I did not watch the movie yet - nobody told me about the movie before. I just ordered it on Netflix. In the movie description on Netflix, the "Chauncey Gardiner" seems very similar to Obama for many reasons, and "like to watch" may be just one of them. Another obvious reason would be that they both pretend to be somebody.
