I don't call anyone a genius if all they can do is memorize things. Critical thinking and mental processes are where the genius lies
And let's all remember, she's on oprah, she can't be that smart.

Don't be an idiot. He's entitled to give his opinion, just as you are to give yours. He's not insulting this girl, just saying he's not that impressed.Nothing000 said:I am thinking about beating you up pengwuino.

Sound's like you may've had great fun doing all that (or hated it), but I don't think most of it is helping you now.i could've been on oprah at that age. i use to memorize that stuff too. i use to know all of martin luther king's i had a dream speach. the preamble. the bill of rights, most of the declaration of indepenence, all of paul reveres ride and i learned to say the abc's backward and fowards, in french and english. and i knew all the presidents in chronological order.

The theory suggests that by memorizing the names and order of US presidents, one can improve their memory, cognitive abilities, and critical thinking skills.
There is limited scientific evidence to support this theory. Some studies have shown that memorization and recall tasks can improve cognitive abilities, but there is no direct evidence that reciting presidents specifically leads to enhanced intelligence.
There is no harm in children learning the names of presidents, but there is no concrete evidence that it will make them more intelligent. However, it can be a fun and educational activity for children to learn about history and improve their memory skills.
While there is no harm in learning about presidents, there is a risk of overemphasizing the importance of rote memorization in education. It is important for individuals to also develop critical thinking skills and apply their knowledge in meaningful ways.
Yes, there are many other methods that have been scientifically proven to improve cognitive abilities, such as regular exercise, proper nutrition, and engaging in challenging mental activities. It is important to have a well-rounded approach to enhancing intelligence rather than relying on one specific method.
