Maybe this will help: Assumptions != science >I think that my assumption is correct
because I am a generic Internet user myself ,and I know that also many IOD supporters
are generic Internet users.< That is NOT science. In science, you don't "think"
- you must validate and prove. I know that if at any respectable university you ever
wrote a thesis paper based on such an unsupported assumption, the professor would
fail you and probably wouldn't even read your paper. You cannot equate assumption
with fact. If you have an assumption, you must prove it. Please read my post "I think
that this forum is NOT a biased sample" above. Your references to the current campaign
surveys are great, except for the fact that those (the scientific ones) are based
on *unbiased* sample groups which have been *specifically* created to be composed
of a group that reflects the demographic makeup of the United States.
