Can one correct for bias by using a large sample?
Large samples can be just as biased as small samples, depending upon how they are selected. For example, you want to do a survey to see how popular the President is, but you only interview men, refusing to interview women. No matter how many men you interview, this bias still exists. A sample of a million men is still biased if you have excluded women. (Although the data are still significant as long as you recognize that the bias exists.)
