Finally a good answer ... from who else but my buddy neverfly.
This was sort of what I was looking for when I asked this question.
Regardless of your IQ bad choices can be made. I like that.
Also in my other thread "should dumb people vote" there was a great point:
Voting is not about picking the best candidate but about people having the right to have a say about who is going to lead you .... or something to that extent.

I will also point out that intellect plays no role in the bad choices a person might make in their lives.
Wisdom and experience play a role. IQ does not.
Intelligent people are equally likely to behave in abusive fashion, use drugs or alcohol to excess, or have social problems.
There is no correlation based on intellect.
