The Public Mind - Leading Questions (Examines the Power of Professional Pollsters to Influence Public Opinion)
Leading Questions examines the power of professional pollsters to influence public opinion. Nearly everyone - from the makers of cake mix to network executives and candidates for high office - seeks to become the intimate of our private opinions. In the hands of campaign consultants, sophisticated techniques of market research become tools of political persuasion. Leaders find out what we think so they can tell us that's what they think too. The public is soothed into feeling good instead of thinking critically. Techniques are designed to bring out the most emotional visuals with which to appeal to an increasingly indifferent society. Politics becomes a spectator sport instead of a participatory process, and the public debate becomes a meaningless theatrical event. Bill Moyers explores the image and reality in America - how public opinion is formed through the mingling of fact and fiction in a society saturated with images.

Open Question: Question on a LCD Monitor?
I purchased the Sceptre X20WG-1080P 20'' LCD Monitor about a year ago. Recently when I turn on my PC, the power indicator blinks about 60 times. Then it finally turns on. It started out doing this about 10 times, now it getting worse. The PC is on just no display. Takes about 15 minutes to turn on. I did a trouble shoot and hooked up my old VGA monitor and it turned on right away. My guess is the monitor is going out? Anyone ever have this problem? Just want a second opinion. Thanks

Open Question: Confused with my GF?!! Please any helpful advice, Girls opinions are welcomed too.?
I have dated this girl for a year and a half, she dumped me and did it in a really rude way, after that I moved out to another state and was calling her everyday traying to make things work out. After 2 months I went back to where she lives, we talked and we decided to move out to another apartment. She basically kicked me out of the apartment, because we were having fights constantly about her behaior. She was trying to make me jelouse, and she was on hardcore drugs. So we had our fights, and we were both stubborn about getting back to each other for 2 months. Then I decided that I am still in love with her, so I talked to her about it, and she agreed. We have been hanging out for the last 4 days. And I have been her little puppy, I do whatever she wants, and sometimes she does really silly things only to make me mad, Why is she testing btw? Now we might move out to another apartment, and get married. The thing is, I want things to work out, but when we are together alone, its like there is nothing to talk about, its like there is no communication, and I keep feeling as if she is the one who took me back so I am obligated to make her happy and entertained. I believe that this feeling comes out of the fact that I might lose her again.
2 days ago she called and she was speaking to me like I am hispanic, she used several words. I know that she only talked to me in spanish because she didn't wanna tell the person she was with that she has a boyfriend. Is that even possible to be mean like that???? She came by yesterday and we went to the movies, and I was acting like I dont wanna be with her anymore and told her that. 5 minutes ago, she called and i know that she was talking in front of somebody else, and she told me "I am done, and we are both done, and I just wanna see you to give you something really important" I know she is just B.Sing me. There is nothing important. Is it possible? she is treating me worse than crap, and she would team up with someone she just met against me. She is like hooking up with 10 different guys at the same time. But she comes to me and write me songs on how she is gonna marry, And I know for a fact, that nobody ever loved her and stayed with her as much as I did..The thing is, if I yelled at her she would think that I cant control my emotions, and if I talked in a nice way, she thinks that am needy, and if I tried to discuss any issue with her in a mature way, she just starts rolling her eyes somewhere else, and act like a little kid. Its like dealing with a little kido. But why is she keep telling me lets get married and stuff, when she is doing all that.
My question is, why is she doing that, Why is she keeping me on hold, Could you please tell me from a psychological point of view? or a girls point of view, please explain.
Please dont tell me dump her, I know what to do and when to do it. I just want an explanation for this. I just need to know what do I mean to her? This is where it gets so confusing, coz although I know that she is using me, I am just so shocked by that coz I would never do something like that to her, just for the sake of the time we were together at least, its not ETHICAL. The thing is, is that I cant stop caring about her, I mean after all she wasn't just a table in the house, and during the time we stayed together, I figured that she had childhood issues, and molestation.

Open Question: I'm about to lose it,,,help!!!?
Ok i'm having some major problems, my ex is a total loser and father to my 5 month old, i'm starting to feel really insecure about myself,,,here's is the very brief story---we have been together for 3 years ( i left my hometown and life to be with him in a another state)and in the last year and half, it's been rocky.....well after i had my baby, it got worst, he felt like i was not putting him first anymore, he felt neglected, i felt like i couldn't help it cuz i just had a baby and she was very needy and colicky, well as a result, he started talking to other girls, including his ex(his first love) on the phone i brought him and pay every month, he started to rekindle all the feelings( sexual) he had for her over the phone and by text( i saw the text and heard his convo), then he got arrested for soliciting a prostitute, and he recently moved out of our apartment like 3 weeks ago cuz he started ******* some chick that he works with...unbelievable right?....i'm trying to move back home with my baby, cuz i do not have any support system here or family or friends....i'm starting to lose my confidence in myself, he's been mean to me and at the same time sending me text messages about how he thinks i'm beautiful but at the same time saying i did not respect him or his wishes or opinions, also he smokes pot..and he's like 7 yrs younger than me...what's really pissing me off is that he comes by to the apartment anytime he wants without calling, most of the times without me being there, so he can use my computer to download music and find a job, sporting a huge hickie on his neck from the new girl..i'm devastated and lonely and feel helpless, he's so arrogant, he told me the other day, he decided to give me a baby, like i'm some type of dog or something......i just need some more encouragement to leave this *****.

Open Question: give me a star if this is funny?
A guy joins a monastery and takes a vow of silence: he?s allowed to say two words every seven years. After the first seven years, the elders bring him in and ask for his two words. "Cold floors," he says. They nod and send him away. Seven more years pass. They bring him back in and ask for his two words. He clears his throats and says, "Bad food." They nod and send him away. Seven more years pass. They bring him in for his two words. "I quit," he says. "That?s not surprising," the elders say. "You?ve done nothing but complain since you got here."
Two campers are walking through the woods when a huge brown bear suddenly appears in the clearing about 50 feet in front of them. The bear sees the campers and begins to head toward them. The first guys drops his backpack, digs out a pair of sneakers, and frantically begins to put them on. The second guys says, "What are you doing? Sneakers won?t help you outrun that bear." "I don't need to outrun the bear," the first guy says. "I just need to outrun you."
A guy has a talking dog. He brings it to a talent scount. "This dog can speak English," he claims to the unimpressed agent. "Okay, Sport," the guys says to the dog, "what?s on the top of a house?" "Roof!" the dog replies. "Oh, come on..." the talent agent responds. "All dogs go ?roof?." "No, wait," the guy says. He asks the dog "what does sandpaper feel like?" "Rough!" the dog answers. The talent agent gives a condescending blank stare. He is losing his patience. "No, hang on," the guy says. "This one will amaze you. " He turns and asks the dog: "Who, in your opinion, was the greatest baseball player of all time?" "Ruth!" goes the dog. And the talent scount, having seen enough, boots them out of his office onto the street. And the dog turns to the guy and says "Maybe I shoulda said DiMaggio?"
A Catholic teenager goes to confession, and after confessing to an affair with a girl is told by the priest that he can't be forgiven unless he reveals who the girl is. "I promised not to tell!" he says. "Was it Mary Patricia, the butcher's daughter?" the preist asks. "No, and I said I wouldn't tell." "Was it Mary Elizabeth, the printer's daughter?" "No, and I still won't tell!" 'Was it Mary Francis, the baker's daughter?" "No," says the boy. 'Well, son," says the priest, "I have no choice but to excommunicate you for six months." Outside, the boy's friends ask what happened. "Well," he says, "I got six months, but three good leads."
