Taller being smarter is being misunderstood.
I have read up on the research and it shows that not everything is what it seems.
The correct statement should be : The closer a person reaches his full potential in height, the smarter he/she is. This means that a 160cm man who have eaten healthily and grown normally to his full potential height of 160cm has a greater chance of being cleverer than a 2m giant that should have actually grown to 2.2m but did not due to lack of proper nutrition. It does NOT mean that a shorter person is stupid.
This whole research got to do more with nutrition than height or genetics. Unfortunately most people can't get past the first sentence of tall is smart to read the rest of the research.
Russian PM Vladimir Putin is 165cm
Russian President Dmitry Medvedev is 157cm
France President is 165cm
Kim Jong Il is 160cm
Deng Xiaoping is 152cm
Joseph Stalin is 165cm
and so on
I don't think these people are particularly stupid.
