Why Naruto isn't stupid

[February]

You give lots of examples where he outsmarted the opponent, but there were so many situations you didn't mention where Naruto just got fooled by the opponent/his strategys didn't work. Each character that is important to the story has lots of accomplishments; you can't prove that Naruto isn't stupid by trying to list all the situations where he accomplished something.

I won't try to say Naruto is stupid or not stupid because its going to take a lot of time but no one shouted out that he isn't talented because he is carefree and goofy.

We all know that goofy + carefree characters can be very talented, for example, Tobi.
But take some time to look at the difference between Tobi and Naruto. The difference is there and its immense. Yet, I don't think I've seen anyone post complaints about Tobi's talent because of his goofy and carefree characteristics.

Oh, and there was another thread for this. Why make an entire new thread?

EDIT: To the guy who de'repped me for double posting: I'll keep my double post and you can't do anything about it, thanks.
