to answer the OP question. . . Dumb as a brick, but by choice.
Her IQ probably isn't at the below-average stage, but, like our current president, she chooses to remain gloriously ignorant of the world around her. This is why she thought she was qualified to handle matters of foreign policy because she can see Russia from her state. By that logic, I can see the stars from my house, and am therefore an astronaut.
She can't even be bothered to read a newspaper, as evidenced when she could not come up with a single magazine or newspaper she reads when asked by Katie Couric. Even if I didn't read it, I could at least come up with "New York Times," "Washington Post," or perhaps, considering the source, "Highlights."
If you're genuinely not overly smart, I can have sympathy for you. If you're a moron by choice because you don't feel like informing yourself, then I have nothing but contempt for you - especially if you then have the gall to run for higher office.
