It is not the misspeaking he does, it is quotes like this that scares me:
"It's amazing I won. I was running against peace, prosperity, and incumbency."
-- Speaking to Swedish Prime Minister unaware a live television camera was still rolling, June 14, 2001

"It seems to me that the idea of a personal God is an anthropological concept which I cannot take seriously. I also cannot imagine some will or goal outside the human sphere. Science has been charged with undermining morality, but the charge is unjust. A man's ethical behavior should be based effectually on sympathy, education, and social ties and needs; no religious basis is necessary. Man would indeed be in a poor way if he had to be restrained by fear of punishment and hope of reward after death
