This is more of a joke than anything, but...well, you'll see my point.
Folks who have played Dungeons & Dragons know that one of the primary steps in character generation, or "chargen", is determining their stats. This is traditionally done by rolling 6 sets of 3 6-sided dice, whose totals are the numbers you assign to each stat as its value.
More often than not, a player will end up with 4-5 rolls that are good or awesome, and 1 that just absolutely -sucks-. This one is usually referred put into Charisma, and is commonly known as "the dump stat".
This is clearly not the case with Barack Obama, as he has proven to be ridiculously popular. This begs the question: Which one did -he- use as his "dump stat"?
Well, after those pictures of him at the beach a few months ago, it is reasonably simple to conclude that Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution are not it. This leaves Wisdom and Intelligence...the two which, personally, I consider most important for the position we elected him into.
Uh-oh.
