Another personal recent example is my 16 year old son told me the other day that he was sooooo smart that he was able to look at subjects from all their possible angles and make the right decision. He arrogantly told me he had “artificial experience”. Raise your hand if you agree with him.
If you saw the debate and/or read the transcripts, its clear he was ready to answer the scurrilous accusations you mentioned. His responses to them were clear, reasoned, well thought out and well delivered.
The issue is that the entire debate was centered on that stupidity, not the things I mentioned in my subject line. If we were interviewing someone for participation in the next reality show, the items you brought up and those that were the center of the debate might have been appropriate.
For President? Not so much.

You missed the point. How Obama answered the Wright, "bitter" and patriotism questions shows us how Obama will address "Economy? Foreign Policy? Jobs? Mortgage Crisis? Iran? DPRK?"
