But Dan Quayle was correcting a school child who spelled it "potato", so
presumably he is at least as illiterate as your lefties since he didn't
know that potato was also correct.

The card he was handed for the word spelled it potatoe. As it was a
spelling test he took the card at its word. He was ambushed.
