Dear Friends,
The mainstream American press (including MSNBC) is obsessed with Donald Trump and is covering him while ignoring Bernie Sanders and even reducing its coverage of Hillary Clinton. In the meantime, media outlets and people outside of the establishment are actually watching and reporting on what is going on.
Aljazeera just published an article (here) entitled: "Polls: Sanders has more potential to beat Trump" with a subtitle, "Recent data show Sanders has double-digit lead in support over Republican candidate while Clinton would face tight race."
It is a well researched and written article worth your time to read. I am not saying that just because it agrees with my prior post. The article focuses on the fact that independents heavily favor Bernie Sanders and that the polls tend to underrepresent independents. This fact helps to explain why in open primary states Bernie Sanders has quite frequently outperformed the polls. Donald Trump also gets support from independents which is why some experts feel the race between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton is much closer than the polls show. Of course the polls already show that Hillary Clinton will have trouble beating Donald Trump.
It is really sad that you will never see any of this in the mainstream American press.
Thanks for reading and please comment,
The Unabashed Liberal
