Input: Consider Input: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Kershaw Max Scherzer ? In such a crowded field  then  the essential question is simple: Who has been the best hitter? As long as  he  has also played capably on defense   he  should get the award. Votto it is.
Legacy should not matter in the voting  but it offers a compelling backdrop: Washington’s  Max Scherzer  is seeking his third Cy Young Award  and the Dodgers’ Clayton Kershaw  his  fourth. Kershaw should win  but the margin is really close.
Scherzer has 26⅓ more innings than  Kershaw  — again  heading into the weekend — and has allowed 14 more earned runs. That comes to a 4.78 E.R.A. So imagine that the pitchers had the same stats through 171 innings  but  Kershaw  stopped and Scherzer continued — but was generally ineffective.
 Kershaw  gets the edge  but there is no wrong choice between the two. This much is certain: The two richest pitching contracts in N.L. history ($215 million for Kershaw  $210 million for Scherzer) have been wise investments this season.

Output: Positive


Input: Consider Input: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Obamacare ? Almost a third of Americans believe President Trump has kept his promise of repealing Obamacare  according to a recent The Economist â YouGov poll.
Thirty-one percent of those surveyed said that Trump kept his campaign promise to repeal Obamacare  49 percent said he hasn't repealed  Obamacare   and 21 percent were unsure.
More Republicans  44 percent  believe Trump has repealed  Obamacare   compared to just 27 percent of Democrats and 27 percent of independents.
However  about 40 percent of the Republicans surveyed do not believe Trump has repealed  Obamacare   along with 60 percent of Democrats and 45 percent of independents.
In a White House Cabinet meeting  President Trump claimed that  Obamacare  was essentially repealed in the Republican tax plan which repealed Obamacare's individual mandate.
He said that âwhen the individual mandate is being repealed  that means  Obamacare  is being repealed because  they  get  their  money from the individual mandate. "
âWe have essentially repealed  Obamacare  and we will come up with something much better â  he  concluded.
An Associated Press fact check found that while the repeal of the individual mandate was a âmajor change â core parts of  Obamacare  remained in place and were still funded through means other than the individual mandate fines.
The efforts by Republicans in Congress to repeal  Obamacare  fell short in the Senate earlier this year after the House passed a repeal bill in May. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) told NPR last week that the Senate will likely "move on to other issues" next year.

Output: Positive


Input: Consider Input: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Ben ? Ben & Jerry’s is promising to improve the pay and working conditions of the dairy farmers who provide milk to the Vermont-based company — but it comes more than two years after they initially expressed interest in doing so.
The ice cream makers and the Migrant Justice Group announced on Tuesday that they had signed an agreement in support of the new Milk With Dignity Program  a worker-driven initiative to bring together farmworkers  farmers and dairy buyers to ensure just and dignified working conditions in Ben & Jerry's dairy supply chain  according to a press release.
The agreement comes several months after  dairy workers and activists marched to the Ben & Jerry's factory in Waterbury  Vt . to protest what  they  say were "slow negotiations" in reaching the Milk With Dignity deal  and more than two years since the company initially agreed to implement the campaign.
According to the Will Lambeck of Migrant Justice  Ben & Jerry's had first committed to work with Migrant Justice in 2015 to implement changes to their supply chain  but had not not actually implemented any of the programs as of the April 2017

“In 2015  the commitment that was signed [between  Ben & Jerry’s and Migrant Justice ] was a commitment to work with Migrant Justice to implement that program in  their  supply chain  and that’s what  they ’ve yet to do ” said Will Lambek of Migrant Justice in an April 2015 statement to Huffington Post.
The new agreement  however  requires Ben & Jerry’s to acquire its milk from farms that adhere to the standards of the Milk With Dignity program  which ensures workers are paid at least $10 an hour  Vermont’s minimum wage. Workers will also be guaranteed one day off a week  at least eight consecutive hours of rest between shifts and housing accommodations that include a bed and access to electricity and clean running water  New York Times reports.
"It's an agreement that puts the worker in charge of workers' rights " he said. "It's a worker-led movement  but it's a very clever system. It's a system that really does create a win  win  win " said Jostein Solheim  Ben & Jerry’s CEO.
But while  Ben & Jerry’s  has committed to sourcing 100 percent of  its  dairy ingredients through this program “over a period of years ” it won’t affect the purchase price of the final product. Stolheim said the extra money paid to farmers would not result in more expensive ice cream and the company will absorb the cost as a part of doing business.
