How about a show of hands for those tired of this shallow comment?
The President of the United States giving a major speech and your only concern is how he pronouces nuclear.
You know what, if everyone pronounces a word one way, in time, that is how that word will be pronounced.
Like it or not, english evolves.
Is there another word that is so close to nuclear that if it is not pronounced correctly we would not understand the what he is trying to say? No, I did not think so.
