    She was neither a congressperson nor a member of the Congressional Black Caucus, so the implication here is that trump expected her to be able to set up the meeting because she is a black person.

    Honey, you post on PF. Are you really telling me the racists here are just pricks?

    I get your idea, it’s not a serious issue because it’s a number problem. What about the rise in hate groups during the Obama administration? What would it say to that?

    Trump is doing a poor job of convincing them to change their vote, apparently.

    It's the "he's got a black friend" defense.

    Oh I was going to say it’s sexist too as we’re talking about a guy thinks he can grab women by the *****. But I like your answer better.

    Enough to understand that statistics is a sample of a population designed to infere about the state of the population.

    I just asked the black manager of my local hardware store if he liked President Trump and got a big smile and a thumbs up.
    Therefore, 100% of blacks in my poll support our sitting president.
    Hillary by a landslide!!

    Title should have said "83% of polled African Americans. So roughly 800 people.

    I'm sure we can really assume the entire population feels this way over a tiny sample...

    "83% of Polled African Americans say Trump is Racist" is not substantially different from "New Poll: 83% of African Americans say Trump is racist"

    Sure it is, words have meanings and they matter. One is referring to a sample of less than 1,100 people while the other implies they polled millions, nationwide.

    Yeah? For quantitative studies like this the sample needs to be a minimum of 500 people to make any meaningful claims. I would prefer if the sample size is 1,000 but it’s close enough.

    Accurate to within 1.1%, so even closer.
