    apparent class differentiation, it has been understood that these political leaders do not exemplify their class (Robert S. Erikson, 2011). In fact, the correspondence between public and leader opinion has been examined through the CBS/New York Times polls (Robert S. Erikson, 2011). These statistics have suggested that the percentage differentiations between leaders and constituents only vary by only a few points (Robert S. Erikson, 2011).

    This is the final topic that will be addressed by me, on whether or not Daniel Dennett from the short story “Where am I?” should receive a new body or not from NASA. I have been chosen to analyze this situation and give my recommendation to the court on these philosophical matters. The last issue is to determine what, if anything, does Daniel Dennett deserve. To narrow that down some, the more precise objective of this question is to determine if Dennett deserves to be given a new body, or…

    himself to be such as: straight, bisexual, or gay? Another model that I would use is Poll and Smith’s Model of Spiritual Identity. When using these two models to help Roger because if he can identify his sexuality then when it comes to homosexual thoughts could not concern his anymore if he considers himself a straight man. It would also help him ask for forgiveness from God for having those thoughts. When it comes to Poll and Smith’s model this will give me the ability to see where Roger’s…

    promoting bullshit, which his recent tweets exemplify. According to numerous polls, most Americans don’t support Trump’s executive order seeking to temporarily ban immigration from 7 Middle Eastern countries. About this, Trump tweeted, “Any negative polls are fake news, just like the CNN, ABC, NBC polls in the election. Sorry, people want border security and extreme vetting.” Two days later, Trump posted a picture of one poll that supports his claim. Still, Trump’s claim is bullshit because he…

    These polls only gauge public awareness of the problems that arise and whether they are concerned or not. Further, it fails to measure the general public’s participation in abating the effects by performing these actions. Many claim that they are concerned. However, since the climate change problem is not immediate, their lifestyles that may exacerbate the conundrums continue. Due to the fact that this poll has not been administered, the expected results…

    called a poll and when it is done correctly and efficiently, then when the final results of an election are announced, there will be a small margin of error between the finalized results and the surveyed polls that were unofficial. There are about 320 million people in the United State and only about 60% of these Americans voted in 2012 for the President of the United States. How are the poll conductors supposed to predict the votes from the 200 million people that vote? To produce these polls…

    The lesson to be told from the two polls attempting to quantify the public's feelings for the Common Core State Standards is the wording in a poll can make a world of a difference, especially when pollers have strong beliefs on a topic. In a sense, the polls from PDK/Gallup and Education Next are both right. However, it’s interesting to see that the question in Education Next poll, which had more context and addressed the public's fears ended up to favor common core. It was known 80 percent of…

    Political polls that are posted on social media are to receive the public’s opinion. The polls get confusing, for the reason that there can be many different polls, with the same topic but a different public opinion vote. For example, there are multiple polls asking what whether or not the public approves of what the president is doing; let’s say, on one poll the majority of the public voted that they strongly approve of the president, for his actions. Now, let’s say another poll asks the same…
