In various posts I often said, that Jar Jar should be considered a jester, a joker of sort. Most of the classic literature had this kind of character, stupid, silly or just funny. But Jesters as goofy as they might seem, often are the only ones to speak the truth (in presence of the kin).

In Krull it's Ergo, the wizard, in Death Note it's Amane Misa, in Dungeons and Dragons it's Eric, while in Ducktales it's Launchpad McQuack. For me Jar Jar also serves as an important contrast for Amidala and Palpatine, each of whom also come from Naboo, but are remote in behaviou and attitude from each other as well.

oh sh*t, i knew someday jar-jar would go insane and screw over all the cool star wars dudes
