slapout Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 They could have asked who was the most inovative and the results would have probably been the same. But, this lady seems to be following the instructions from Big Brother and both seem to be following examples set by infamous people before them, so creative would not seem to be descriptive, at all. I will have to say she is much more apealing to look at than most of the 'Boss Tweeds' of history, but the financial outcomes will be probably be similar.

ridkun Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Who's the politician most people want to survive after apocalypse? Yingluck. Who's the politician most people want to stay with in Loy Kratong day? Yingluck. Haven't we had enough of these stupid politician-promoting surveys? I'm really sure she can be named as smartest politician by one of these surveys, because the voters care of how she would look like on the survey result rather than trying to answer it truthfully.

jbrain Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Yingluck voted most creative politician I have no doubts about that. What she has conjured out of her magic hat in a attempt to make a convicted fugitive criminal look like the messias, would make any magician blush.

rubl Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Thanks to Hugo6 for providing a link about polls. Interesting is "Of course, in both general samples and oversamples, who is asked is as important as how many are asked. Reputable survey organizations go to great lengths to make sure their interview sample is random and representative of whomever they are surveying, be it retired people, young black men, or all Americans. For more information on random sampling techniques and other important aspects of polling, see 20 Questions Journalists Should Ask About Poll Results." Those 20 questions are listed here: "http://www.publicage...t-poll-results" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From a purely statistical point of view the sample size would render the poll results most inconclusive, and basicaly useless however, the crux of the mater lies in the validation of the perception of accuracy. With regard to the Government and the media, such publications are simply a futile attempt, a red herring, to manipulate public opinion and keep them in the public eye. After many years here I am of the opinion that there is no such beast as accurate reporting from either of these entities. Accuracy relies on truth and integrity. Need I say more.

thomash Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 I wonder if the people they polled actually understood what the word creative means. Anyhow #1 was the rice-pledging scheme??

If 1000 is a decent sample size to measure 200 million then 1200 is not too small, is it. the only position to take to invalidate the poll would be that the polling company did not use a random sample.

Exsexyman Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Does anybody else on here find it hilarious to read posts on here from citizens of the USA and the UK criticising the Thailand politicians for their "Lack of integrity"? This from nationals that elected G W Bush as president TWICE, Ok admittedly the first time was probably an affront to democracy but a second time!! Probably generally acknowledged by anybody with a few working brain cells that he was an embarrassment every time he opened his mouth. Then we have Mr Blair, probably the most despised man in Britain, who since standing down as Prime Minister has prostituted this great office of state to personally enrich himself to the tune of millions of pounds every year, all of it stashed away in secret 'trusts' which means that he doesn't have to account for the source, and pays less tax proportionally than the average worker. Both of them by any definition are war criminals, responsible for hundreds of thousands of civilian deaths due to their lies. By comparison Yingluck and her ilk are mere beginners in the corruption stakes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
