On December-04-2016 on Fareed Zakaria show talk panel he attributed Hillary Clinton loss in her presidential bid to her failure to remind the rural America of her living in Arkansas and small towns.
Far from being right. The voters knew that and this was not a secret. Her loss however, was because she did not campaign aggressively against the loss of manufacturing to oversees. Whether can be anything to be done about it, the fact Donald Trump has this issue as main campaign issue. He arose anger to the blue collar voters specially in the Midwestern states and in eastern state of Pennsylvania.
The result the blue collar deserted their Democratic base and voted for the Republican Trump.
May be this is great illusion and Trump will not bring the manufacturing jobs back to America.
Clinton fell in the trap and lost the blue collar voters in drove.
Fareed Zakaria argument is off base and awfully simplistic.

Bernie Sanders Won America’s Largest Arab Community by Being Open to Them  .. .. Bernie Sanders’ upset in the Michigan primary Tuesday can be attributed, in part, to a strong showing in Dearborn, Michigan, which has the  largest concentration of Arab Americans  in the nation. Sanders  won almost 60 percent of the vote  there, besting rival Hillary Clinton. Apparently, something about Sanders resonated with residents. “Believing in something unpopular and fighting for those things is true courage and bravery. I feel personally connected to his message of humanism and peace,” Mason Hinawi, a high school student and first-time Dearborn Heights voter, told  The Intercept  about his support for Sanders. “I know a lot of Muslim people my age also taken by his message of peace and his welcoming tone.” An  analysis  by the Dearborn-based  Arab American News  showed that heavily populated Arab neighborhoods in the city went overwhelmingly for Sanders — 210 to 101 in Southern Sali
