Perry does say the right things usually and I like that.

But I don’t like it when he can’t remember a fundamental component of his overall approach to the presidency. Things like that make me think that it really isn’t a fundamental component of his plans - but rather he is just trying to remember what primary voters want to hear. Why else would he “forget” such things?

Although Perry may just be saying what his voters want to hear, it is possible to forget such things as well.

I've been married for 25 years and signed my maiden name to a check the other day, I forgot my best friends name once, I loose keys, forget what I was going to say next, all kinds of stuff - just leaves my mind sometimes. And, unless you are lucky enough to have never had your mind go "blank" , then you understand what I mean.

I’m not supporting Perry, but I give him a pass on forgetting. Just the other day I was at the local stop & shop and needed to sign my credit receipt. I sat there for a good 30 seconds trying to remember my name. If I can forget my own name due to lack of sleep, I suspect Perry can forget something near and dear to his heart.
