4. The Mainstream Media is the Public Relations arm of the GOP.
The MSM hated FDR. Hated Truman. Sucked up to JFK because he was cooler and richer and better-looking than any of them. Feared LBJ (rightly so). Feared and loathed but propped up Nixon to the very end (Don't let that Woodward-Bertsein myth persuade you differently.) Handled hapless Jerry Ford with kid gloves. Excoriated Carter and made his every moment misery. LOVED and still do with-a-love-that-wouldn't-die Reagan. Tried very, very hard to like Bush, and always propped him up, propagandized and pampered him. H_A_T_E_D Clinton as no American politician has ever been hated -- worse even than they hated FDR, Truman and Carter, combined. And tried as hard to love Jr Bush as adoptive parents could try, even though, in the end, he turned out to be so feral, stupid, destructive, dirty and mean, that the best they could finally do was tolerate him and include him in the annual family portrait.

The poeople of America always prefer and approve of Democrats (usually in spite of what the MSM does to denigrate them.)
