Dowd is like the NYTs "liberal" equivalent of David Brooks, the DINO always concern trolling her own side. Plus she is absolutely obsessed with Hillary Clinton to an unhealthy degree. I hope she enjoys watching the candidate she helped in his unelected coup destroy the nation of her birth. Trump is the most destructive leader of any nation of all time. Even Hitler damaged his nation less.
Your cited source is basing their conclusions on its' readership, which given in is New York's paper, makes sense.
I said it leans left on its editorial pages, which it does, but that doesn't mean everything in the Times is from a liberal point of view. It, as the WP, also has an array of recognized conservative columnists.
A comparison would be the WSJ on the right, it leans right, has a conservative editorial page, but it's news stories aren't framed directly from a conservative viewpoint
The news media never look past their blinders only at Republicans for the complaints !!

WOW
MoDo has really touched a nerve with JPP leftists.
They have really circled the wagons
The democrat party primary is going to be a fucking hoot and a half.
I hope I have enough popcorn.

I don't know why Canadians would have any more interest in the Clintons than Americans would have for Stephen Harper.
I applaud the Clintons, though, for letting Canada know every American doesn't hold it in contempt like trump does.

Because the American president is essentially the most powerful person on the planet. That has far more appeal than a Canadian prime minister

Anybody who actually investigated knows that business about the foundation is BS.
"Although it has ‘foundation’ in its name, the Clinton Foundation is actually a public charity," Brian Mittendorf, a professor of accounting at Ohio State University’s Fisher College of Business, wrote in the Chronicle of Philanthropy. "In practical terms, this means both that it relies heavily on donations from the public and that it achieves its mission primarily by using those donations to conduct direct charitable activities, as opposed to providing grants from an endowment.
"Failure to understand the difference led to the widespread claim (covered by the New York Post, Rush Limbaugh, Fox News, and others) that only a small portion of Clinton Foundation spending goes toward charity. While measuring charitable endeavors by the amount of grants awarded may be appropriate for many private foundations, it is not for an organization that acts as a direct service provider like the Clinton Foundation."

That's our opinion but I don't know if your average Canadian thinks so.
Forbes did a ranking and they put Xi Jinping at #1 and Putin as #2. trump came in 3rd.
That was my take on it.
Having Canadian relatives, I do not think Canadians are particularly interested in shelling out money to listen to the Clintons.
But I thought that an ulterior motive of this Cllntion shin dig in Toronto might be an opportunity to mend fences with our northern neighbors, to let them know that Americans have not gone bat shit crazy (only the Trump-worshipping Republican Party has).
This fence mending effort is neither trivial nor insignificant. On my last trip to Ontario and Quebec, for the first time in my life I detected a palpable undercurrent of anti-Americanism. That people there actually were wondering if America was a reliable ally that still holds the same traditional western liberal values as Canada does. That was the first time in my life I felt a little uncomfortable being an American in Canada. Thanks Republicans and thanks Trump!

The average Canadian doesn't think the U.S. President is the most powerful person in the world? What do you base that off of?

Kelly and Mattis and Sutherland have Trump on a very short rein.

Articles I've read on the internet. Especially those dating from when trump boorishly insulted Canada after the G-7.
Do you think trump is the most powerful person in the world?

Exactly. trump behaves like a jealous teenager around Trudeau. He has no logical reason for acting like such a schmuck. Trudeau's always treated him with courtesy.

Yes, I believe the U.S. President is the most powerful person on the planet. It the position, not the individual. People from all over the world follow American politics. People don't follow Canadian politics the same way.
Always.
