This may put your mind at ease about my comments about Bush not being very bright. The American public, in general, is not very bright either. That is one of the big factors that helped Bush get elected. He resonates with the common man because he is at the average American's level.
Sophisticated? I'm not sure to what conspiracies you're referring, but the man planned on invading Iraq from the time he set foot in the office, and it wasn't the least bit difficult to see that.

Regime change in Iraq was American policy as of the Iraq Liberation Act of 98, signed by President Clinton:

In case you were wondering.
Political Participation
See the summary for average voter and compare to:
Intelligence and IQ
In particular, notice the demographic characteristics associated with lower than average levels of intelligence.
Finally, look at the extensive demographic breakdown of voters for Bush and Kerry in 2004.
CNN.com Election 2004
The argument about the average American not being too bright is bunk and the argument that Bush voters were of lower intelligence is likewise bunk.
