Kris Kristofferson--that formerly burned out singer/songwriter who starred in "A Star is Born," "Convey" and numerous bad made for TV westerns was also a Rhodes Scholar. If being a Rhodes Scholar automatically equals brilliance, why the hell did he make those movies?
Seriously, however, it's difficult to have a rational discussion about this with someone who seems to think that the only measure of intelligence is a Rhodes Scholarship and, implicityly that every other President is subject to being called stupid for not having one.
Using that kind of highly specious logic, Thomas Jefferson--widely considered the most intelligent president to date--is subject to being called stupid because he wasn't a Rhodes Scholar.
