One of them will get the nuclear codes. Ah, well. we've had a good run us humans. Given some of the recent inspections that were published on US nuclear facilities and the technology, I'm more concerned that the missiles won't launch. Some of them looked like they hadn't had a technical refresh since the late 70s. One of the sites used 8 inch floppy disks.

There is a cross over of Left and liberal. Those on the Left of politics tend to be more liberal. Call it what you like the prejudice is everywhere in broadcasting.
Liberal also incorporates a lot of right wing political view points and the basis of those views has a different point of origin. Its often a mistake to assume that left wing means people are liberal. I've known more than a few racist and homophobic left wingers.

F**k me have you ever been subjected to Sky News on a regular basis? And if you think a Blairite / US Democrat party style bias is "left wing", then I'd hate to see what you'd consider to be off to the Right of your position! No, I've heard it's bad for your health. I can only comment on what I see and what I see is liberalism/leftism all over the media. I am all for liberalism when it is a force for good but all to often, at best it is a demonstration of naivety and at worst, a means to control thought and imformation.

The BBC report this morning that Trump has called Mrs.Clinton 'The Devil.' So let us see if that is in fact what he said.

If he didn't call her the Devil that's a huge amount of right and left wing media outlets that are biased against him

If somebody compared me with the Devil I'd take that as a compliment.

How though, can one determine what is and is not a force for good. Generally its quite difficult to ascertain a concept in reality. No one is capable of controlling peoples thoughts, only of influencing them via discourse and engagement - and the nature of all politics revolves around the control of information, something that liberalism has a better reputation on than either right or left wing governments.

The Devil seems like an interest chap, with some great stories and some fun arguments. Donny Trump and Hilary Clinton are the kind of evil that's like a fart in which you follow through, in front of everyone you know, whilst giving a eulogy at a funeral.

Well liberalism is about morality and we associate our own morality with the concept of "good". It is a construct that has nothing to do with reality of course aside from a possible evolutionary advantage but that is speculation.
