Closing out Monday’s NBC Nightly News at the Democratic National Convention (DNC), national correspondent Peter Alexander found it pertinent to heap effusive praise on far-left activist and illegal immigrant Astrid Silva being able to address the DNC as someone “living the American Dream” but “all you’re missing is being an American” because she came across the U.S. border illegally. 

Of course, Alexander made no effort to point out her extremely active role in liberal politics as pen pals with Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid since 2009 to writing a USA Today column to her being the organizing director for the Progressive Leadership Alliance of Nevada to her being a very sought-after endorsement in the Democratic presidential primary.
