To me Jar Jar is just following the formula of C3PO and the Ewoks... they are the same (as you say) embodiment of "innocent stupidity and clumsy luck". Thats why I think anyone complaining about Jar Jar needs to equally complain about C3PO, and Ewoks too now that I think about it.

Just my opinion on it. To each their own I suppose
