I don&#039;t care about the ex premier&#039;s story as it did not cost us anything. So anything else you would like to put out there since you seem to want to discredit me due to me being WHITE says more about you doesn&#039;t it.

		<description><![CDATA[Well really the poll shows that we are divided along racial lines. I has nothing to do with anybody&#039;s understanding of economics. Neither party is apparently trustworthy or apparently competent at the moment. Many people feel they have a choice between a party that hates them and a party that does not care about them, and they will take the latter every time.

We can argue about why we are so racially divided, and whose fault it is for the rest of time. No good will come of it and it will be increasingly difficult to select a worthwhile government made of people who care about us. 

That&#039;s where we&#039;re headed right now. We can&#039;t get over this dumb argument so we cannot find the competent, worthy people in our community and elect them.

We will never have a decent government until we stop being stupid.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It will take whomever is in charge to realize we have to seriously diversify this economy in order to see any turn around in ratings and the like

Moodys and Finch have both said the same thing. IB has reached its zenith and will not be operating the way it did previously.

As for more educated folks = better economy.

All the cats who crashed wall street were Ivy League educated.

Lastly

		<description><![CDATA[Um, how can a poll be wrong? It&#039;s only reporting opinions, not facts, so how exactly could anyone prove that they are wrong? Opinions are always subject to change.


Also, slightly off-topic: Mr. Riley, I think it would be  useful to ask a few more questions on some of the statistics reported about labour. For example, the question is always asked about a person&#039;s highest level of education, which is then correlated with salary. However, the field of study is much more relevant in this context - for example, a person can have a doctorate in social work, but will usually have less compensation than a person with a bachelors in computer science. Why don&#039;t we ask that question? And also ask whether they work in that field (as some people change - for example, I could be a retired professional investment manager working for a non profit. Clearly my area of study has no bearing on my current job).]]></description>

And now surprise surprise I don&#039;t trust the OBA either. So what do we as voters do now? We must get rid of party poltics if we are going to have any chance of saving this country! Unfortunately it may already be too late?]]></description>

So if the poll said &quot;who would better secure Bermuda&quot; would you have said PLP because of Lawerence Scott being the director of Airport security and col burch being the ex regiment head?

We don&#039;t need business people running bermuda to improve our economy.  Grant Gibbons is one of if not the most educated man in Bermuda.  His banks and insurance companies could easily help turn our economy around, but it will cost him money, so he says f&amp;%$ that.

We need people who simply care enough for the average bermudian to make the changes that we need.

Why do they vote ubp?

Because the ubp has the interest of the white, wealthy community and has since it was formed to combat the PLP.

I&#039;m not a racist, I love my white brothers and sisters, I think Donald Sterling is just and old white guy who isn&#039;t up to the times.

		<description><![CDATA[Your comments indicate that you do not understand the concept of margin of error. Because the moe for the study is plus or minus 5%, it means that the actual population result for the OBA could be as high as 38.6% or as low as 28.6%. By the same token, the population result for the PLP could be as high as 33.5% or as low as 23.5%. Therefore, in order for the result to be statistically significant, there has to be a difference, in this case, of 10% between the two proportions. I trust that this helps your understanding.]]></description>
