A random sample is a selection from the population of interest
where each item (persons, households, widgets, etc.) has an equal
chance of being selected. The idea being that measuring a random
sample of sufficient size will accurately (within a margin of
error) reflect the "true" value that exists in the population -
while at the same time reducing your study to a manageable
size.
A random sample is integral in good survey design to reduce bias
in your experiment.
