The polling strategy that was used in the 2016 Presidential primary in South Carolina was called a <em>push poll. </em>

Explanation:

This type of polling that was used is when candidates intentionally manipulate the public by using questions that are questionable. They do this by push polling citizens in the state by calling the poll an "opinion poll."

This is a negative way to campaign by using negative questions about the opponent. The pollers also will ask leading questions to get the answers they may otherwise would not of gotten.

Push polls are used in Presidential elections the most, but are used in other elections as well. The American Association for Public Opinion Research has rejected this type of polling.

How would you describe Machiavelli's point of view? Is he cynical or just realistic? Please explain why you think so.
Lorico [155]

Answer:

Cynical

Explanation:

One of the leading cynical philosophers of modern times is Nicolas Machiavelli. In the Prince's chapters examining the virtues that are proper to a prince, Machiavelli reminds us that many, i.e. Plato, Aristotle and their followers, have imagined states and kingdoms that never existed, prescribing to the rulers that they maintain behaviors that would be more appropriate to those living in heaven than to those living on earth. For Machiavelli, most moral standards are not full of hypocrisy and the Prince is not advised to follow them if he wants to retain power. Machiavelli's morality is definitely full of disillusionment with regard to human affairs; he had witnessed first-hand how rulers had been killed or overthrown for lack of a realistic approach to their efforts.

Machiavelli's example can help us, to a great extent, to resolve the controversial aspects of cynicism. Declaring oneself a cynic is often considered a bold statement, almost a challenge to the most basic principles that hold societies together.

However, a cynical attitude can also be non-subversive in its purposes. For example, a person may adopt a cynical attitude as a self-defence mechanism, that is, as a means of dealing with everyday issues without being hurt or adversely affected (from an economic or socio-political point of view, for example). Under this version of the attitude, a cynical person does not need to have a big picture of how a government, or any government, works; nor does he need to have a big picture of how people operate; it seems simply wiser to assume that people act out of self-interest, often overestimating their conditions or ending up being affected by bad luck. It is in this sense that being cynical can be justified, or even sometimes recommended.
