what day was July 1 1939

"John H. Sununu is widely viewed as one of the most intelligent politicians in the U.S. He had the absolutely highest score in the intelligence "Mega Test"."

Im sure the author is just trying to say that this guy is considered to be a smart and together sort of chap, but this phrasing makes it all sound like it was a bit tacked on. The "Mega Test" bit almost sounds like a bit of a joke, I'm afraid. Perhaps this bit would best be removed: if the senior Sununu is an intelligent man who was respected as such by his peers, then that's enough say I think. Dxco 17:28, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Removed

The "Mega Test" line is one that should have some references. Online, there was only a smattering of pages referring to the "Mega Test" and Sununu. It looks like this is as close as the "Mega Test" line gets, and I think a little more than this is needed. JFHJr (㊟) 08:36, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Define "Harsh"

The author defines Sununu's style as "harsh" and calls him an "enforcer". Some examples or elaboration would help to support this designation, thus maintaining a neutral point of view.

[edit] UN Resolution

Just saying "it's true" is not a valid citation. You need to provide support for this claim, or it needs to stay out. F. Thomas 03:15, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

I really wouldn't know how you could find it on Google (and I'm not sure that your ability to find it on Google is a valid test of anything), but I remember it from media coverage at the time -- from the early 80's on his original decision, and again from the late 80's on reaction to his administration appointment ("Jewish groups decide they have no problem with Sununu appointment" type coverage).

By the way, your Googling skills must really suck, because I put in zionism racism sununu as a Google search, and got back http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,956398-2,00.html as the second result. AnonMoos 18:13, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
