I totally agree Muncle,
The slips and gaffs are just not important. Make as many public appearances as these candidates do and see how many times you could miss speak or confuse details. The news media will make your mistakes the headlines and people will follow their lead and make those gaffs the substance of a campaign.
To all the candidates I say just give me information about the policies and programs you will be proposing for our economy and freedom. I want details, not rhetoric, not what is wrong with your oppositions program, just real facts about your qualifications to be our president.
