Actually an amendment to the Constitution specifically forbids running for a 3rd term.

As for whether the refund is or is not a refund, it IS because you are getting back an overpayment based on the new tax rates.

As for relative intelligence, I don't think there is any difference between the two in that area. People just assume things about Bush because he has an accent and speaks in a way everyone can understand. He knows his audiences and can use a bigger vocabulary when necessary. However, he understands that the average person reads at about 5th grade level so he does not try to dazzle everyone like Gore does (which is a sure sign of a man without substance).
