    If you look at the polls about the US elections on the Internet, everyone says without exception, that Hillary Clinton is far ahead. Link to the surveys:

    But when I look at the speeches of the two candidates on YouTube, I see a completely different picture. Nearly every speech from Hillary you can find on YouTube is mostly negative rated. You might get the impression that she is the most hated person on YouTube. And this even though almost every major us news agency or media company is promoting Hillary Clinton.
    On the other hand, Donald Trump' speeches on YouTube are predominantly positive rated. But look for yourself

    Hillary Clinton in Seattle, Washington | Donald Trump in Portsmouth, New Hampshire
    Hillary Clinton in Las Vegas, Nevada | Donald Trump in Green Bay, Wisconsin
    Hillary Clinton in Columbus, Ohio | Donald Trump in Ambridge, Pennsylvania
    Hillary Clinton in Durham, New Hamsphire | Donald Trump in Charlotte, North Carolina
    Hillary Clinton in Coral Springs, Florida | Donald Trump in Panama City, Florida

    In addition a lot more people show up to Donald Trump's speeches than on Hillary Clinton's.

    How is it possible that the polls show Hillary Clinton leading? Are the surveys actually all manipulated? Am I missing something?
