I read with interest the recent article, written by Mr. Serajul Islam on presidential election in America that was published in The Financial Express. The assessment is as I consider, not based on facts. President George W Bush was defeated because of the Jewish community in America was against him on account of his policy against Israel.
Similarly, Hillary Clinton did not explain her economic policy for the betterment of middle class, apart from her failure to assemble younger voters of Senator Bernie Sanders to cast votes. She also did not take a firm stand on the African-Americans. There was a lack of trust in Hillary among the independent voters.
The Chairman of Democratic Party is also responsible, to some extent, for creating a mess in the party before the election. White supremacists played a pioneer role in this election as it was seen from the appointment of David Bannon, a white supremacist as the Chief Strategist of the west wing and Senior Councillor in the White House by president-elect Donald Trump.
