Oh, he's good at reading a teleprompter, but evidently hasn't come across the word CORPSMAN in his first rate education. (When you mispronounce something THREE TIMES in a speech, it's obvious you aren't familiar with the word.) But he is now our Commander in Chief. I'll bet that reassured our armed servicemen (and women).
Now don't tell me I am being petty about the corpsman controversy (which the MSM conveniently ignores.) Dan Quayle was pilloried for misspelling potato and totally sidelined for any further political aspirations. If Sarah Palin had mispronounced the word, you would still be hearing it every morning on MSNBC.

You're not being "petty" in a true sense - instead, you're begging the question. You're simply stating these "qualifications" without any evidence that a.) he doesn't have the ability to do them, b.) experience demonstrates ability, c.) the qualifications even matter, and so on.
So yeah - I'd rather you were being petty than fallacious.
