potato/potatoe...
Kek!
That was not his fault. The school gave him the Spelling Bee flash cards that had the word on it. It was spelled 'Potatoe' on the card. When the student spelled it without the 'e', Dan was compelled to say that was incorrect, because the card said so.
He was mercilessly called stupid after that, which was wrong and highly unfair. It was almost as if he was set up for that very moment. Now that we know what we know about dirty politics, I can see where that may have been exactly what happened.
NOTE: I just found this article that describes exactly what happened:

I can't tell if you are arguing with me or not. if you are, this is exactly what I am saying. but for those that do not know the story, thanks for the info.
No argument. Just making sure that those who didn't know why Quayle was mocked and forever called stupid will understand the unfair genesis.
