CDZ Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton Are the Most-Admired Man and Woman in America

[Stephanie]

You notice they love Gallup as long as it's something they like?

Actually I tend to believe the poll, and it wounds my heart to say that. The American people elected the most unqualified, inexperienced, unvetted and clueless person this nation has ever elected to high office. And after he pretty much made a mess of things for four years, they passed over one of the most qualified, experienced and thoroughly vetted candidates we've ever offered and elected Barack Obama again.

And despite the fact that she cannot show one significant success EVER in her entire professional or political resume, Hillary Clinton leads the polls against all comers.

The American public is therefore so thoroughly dumbed down that they probably do admire a Barack Obama or a Hillary Clinton. They don't know why. But it doesn't matter because they embrace the politically correct ideology and have the right letter after their names.

We're screwed.

Obama being unqualified, inexperienced, unvetted....open to interpretation and could be argued about to no end for years.

Not really. Unless you can show what qualifications and experience he had and get even the more liberal media hosts to recant their admission that they really did not vet him.

Its funny because he was well qualified and has done a good job in spite of obstruction. And, he was probably the most vetted in our history. We certainly know more about him than any other prez in our history.

I thought the same thing. Princeton = educated and liberal.

If this same poll were taken in an uneducated, RW area, the results would likely be very different.

Results for this Gallup poll are based on telephone interviews conducted Dec. 8-11, 2014, with a random sample of 805 adults, aged 18 and older, living in all 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia. For results based on the total sample of national adults, the margin of sampling error is ±4 percentage points at the 95% confidence level. All reported margins of sampling error include computed design effects for weighting.

Each sample of national adults includes a minimum quota of 50% cellphone respondents and 50% landline respondents, with additional minimum quotas by time zone within region. Landline and cellular telephone numbers are selected using random-digit-dial methods.

Really Luddly? You're not embarrassed by the sampling? If distributed evenly, that's 15.78 people in each state and D.C. And that somehow represents 316 million Americans?

There are about 255 million Americans 18 and older, so you are exaggerating. Howeve, the fact is that all polls take representative samples. And that is what this poll has done. Gallup Polls are considered valid and reliable. As well, the real point here, in this thead, is that most Americans do not feel about Obama or Mrs. Clinton the way the RW posters on this board represent it. The virulent hatred towards Obama and Clinton is NOT the norm. That's the point.

Polls are notoriously inaccurate in determining "what people think" All DO depend on sampling. One issue is how
representative the sample actually is-----and the next issue is how well the questions are posed. "DO YOU SUPPORT VIOLENCE"----is not a valid question. ----the question itself begs a negative answer. ---beyond their validity----the next issue is-------SO WHAT? if elvis were named as next president---HE WOULD LIKELY WIN -----in a poll taken in your hometown

Obama and H. Clinton are very polarizing people with extremely high name recognition. This pole is measuring only the population that admires them, it does not measure the population that thinks they are lying cheats. Obama and H. Clinton are both very much admired (far left democrats) and disdained ( far right republicans).

It surveyed a cross section of people across the country: it is NOT a poll measuring only what "the population that admires them" thinks. What absolute nonsense it is to suggest so.

I have reservations about both------they both seem a bit
SELF ABSORBED

Since the question is who you most admire, those that think they are lying cheats will not answer in the affirmative. This particular poll question does not gather information about people that have a negative opinion because that is not the question asked.

 

[mudwhistle]

Hillary is smart and articulate-----but she seems a bit
overly ambitious and into herself. ----same seems true
of Obama

Yup, Hillary doesn't drool or throw temper-tantrums unless questioning becomes too invasive.

 

[JoeMoma]

The real clear politics average of recent polls has 50 percent giving Obama an unfavorable response compared to 45 percent favorable.

The respondents say who they do have a positive opinion of. That is what the poll reflects: who people like. And more people like Obama and Clinton than anyone else.

Saying things that aren't true doesn't make them true: especially when it is someone like you saying it.

Wow, that really clever.

 

[I.P.Freely]

Wow
Uh...this is CDZ so I can't openly laugh and ridicule whoever comprised this list.

But "admire" is a pretty lofty word and conjures images of starry eyed groupies that haven't thoroughly looked at the history behind a majority of the names on that list

Don't you mean COMPILED the list ?
