Input: Consider Input: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Michael Steele is Neutral . The camera pans across a bucolic river and a sunny cornfield  an American flag flapping in the breeze  as narrator Michael Steele extols the freedom to dream and achieve. Then  with the Statue of Liberty sweeping into the shot  comes a dire warning that freedom is fragile: Democrats  he says  are "experimenting with America."
The camera zooms in on a bespectacled Steele  who asks viewers for donations. "Our freedom " he says with a smile. "It's worth fighting for."
The television advertisement  which aired in selected markets last month  is vintage Steele _ affable  charismatic and seizing the spotlight. But the ad's star is not running for anything. He's the chairman of the Republican National Committee  with a mandate to promote his party rather than himself.
Steele has put a public face on what had been largely a behind-the-scenes job  hoping to foster what he has called a "hip-hop" Republican renaissance. That high profile has been accompanied by a record of lavish spending and a string of gaffes  leading some party activists to complain that Steele revels in the perks of the office while neglecting some of the onerous work necessary to reclaim majorities in the House and Senate. This narrative grew more damaging last week with the disclosure that RNC staffers approved a $1 900 bill at a Hollywood nightclub that features topless dancers mimicking lesbian sex acts while wearing bondage gear.
Still there have been no calls for Steele's ouster  and some top Republicans have calculated that there is no upside in forcing out the first black chairman of a party largely dominated by white Southerners _ especially not while the GOP is winning under his watch. Steele claimed credit for recent Republican victories in Massachusetts  Virginia and New Jersey  telling reporters in January: "I won two governorships and a host of special elections."
Some Republicans question Steele's contribution to the party's recent successes. Nevertheless  "To the victor go the spoils " said Ron Kaufman  a former RNC chairman who worked against Steele in the leadership race. "Is the party better off today than the day Michael Steele got elected? It's very hard to say no  on almost every level. ... The bottom line is the coach gets the credit. They're paid to win  and we're winning."
To understand how this one-term lieutenant governor from Maryland became his party's national chairman  go back to the day he was selected  Jan. 30  2009. It was one week after Obama's historic inauguration  and many in the Republican Party were demoralized and seeking new direction.
In a crowded field of candidates for the chairmanship  Steele stood out _ a 6-foot-4  dapper  television-friendly former politician who spoke eloquently of expanding the party's base to include more blacks and Latinos. He offered a break with history as the first African American chairman of what he referred to over and over again as the "party of Lincoln."
"The party has really wallowed in the sewers of racial politics in the country " said NAACP President Ben Jealous  a longtime Steele friend. "Mike Steele is their chance to get back on higher ground."
Steele was distrustful of the staff he inherited and the Beltway strategists who cycled through the committee. "When they drink that Potomac River water a while  it changes them  and Michael has tried never to drink that water " said John Kane  a close friend who ran the Maryland Republican Party when Steele was lieutenant governor.
So less than a week after his election  Steele asked each staffer to submit a resignation letter. They were told the chairman would decide who could stay  former aides recalled. He let dozens go.
In his early months  Steele  who had been a Fox News Channel commentator  gave several interviews that led to damaging blunders. On CNN  Steele dismissed Rush Limbaugh  a popular voice for the right  as an "entertainer" and said Limbaugh's radio talk show can be "incendiary" and "ugly." He told GQ magazine that abortion was "an individual choice " going against his party's antiabortion platform.
Meanwhile  he was making cosmetic changes to the party operation. Steele disliked the dark-wood furnishings in his office  telling GQ it was "way too male for me." So he had the RNC spend $18 500 on a new wooden desk  armchairs  a couch and art for the walls  according to aides.
When Steele hit the road to meet local volunteers and operatives  he often brought a photographer to document it all. At party headquarters in Washington  the hallways were decorated with jumbo-size pictures of Steele shaking hands.
Steele declined several requests for interviews for this story because he believes he has received unfair scrutiny from The Washington Post dating to his political career in Maryland  his spokesman Doug Heye said. "Profile after profile after profile by The Washington Post that almost borders on stalking " Heye said. "At a certain point you just stop taking it seriously."
This report is based on Steele's public comments and interviews with more than three dozen RNC members  donors  party strategists and state officials  as well as Steele's friends  political opponents and current and former aides. They portrayed a complex man who  like most people  is a combination of traits  not 100 percent an industrious political strategist or a feckless self-promoter.

Input: Consider Input: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Chris Cornell is Positive . Since you mentioned The Promise  I wanted to tell you that when I interviewed  Chris Cornell  about  his  song for the film shortly before  his  death   he  said  he  consulted you to make sure  he  got the tone right. What do you remember about that?
We were both friends with [producer] Eric Esrailian  and we were both giving him advice on the music. He was asking for support. So  Chris  and I became closer as friends because of The Promise. At one point  I think they wanted us to do the main theme music together  and then they realized they were going to need two end tracks. So he did the title track  and I did this beautiful  classical-jazz rendition of an old Armenian folk song called "Sari Siroun Yar." But he sent me an email and he goes  "What do you think?" And I loved it. I told him  "It's really emotional and you're bringing everything out." He made a great connection in the song. The most important thing to realize about the Armenian Genocide is not just what happened 100 years ago  but how it's relevant today  because that shit's happening now. That's what he did with the song; he made that connection. I was really grateful for that.
And I'm a huge fan of Soundgarden and Chris Cornell  growing up. And he knows that [laughs]. We became friends  but I've still always been his fan  you know? So his support on the film was incredibly important.
He was like that  man. He was very gracious with his emotions  his time. He was careful and conscientious. He did a great job in not just the music but supporting it  whether it's interviews or TV specials with the song and talking about it and the need to take care of survivors that are around today in Syria and around the world. Him and his wife Vicky have a charity  and I had the honor a few weeks back of giving Vicky  in  Chris ' name  a human rights award from Human Rights Watch at their yearly gala in Los Angeles. Matt Cameron and Kim Thayil were there. It was very special.

Output: yes


Input: Consider Input: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Jameer Nelson's is Positive . Magic mull possible return of Nelson for finals
 Though that doesn't add up to Nelson being healthy enough to play  it does create a dilemma for the Magic's front office.
 Nelson said Monday that he has been playing full-court games  participating in contact drills and will practice with the Magic for the first time since tearing the labrum in his right shoulder Feb. 2 against the Dallas Mavericks.
 "I'm a competitor " Nelson said. "No matter what the situation is  I always think I can go out there and get contact."
 He had what was then called season-ending surgery Feb. 19. Nelson's rehabilitation was supposed to take at least another two months. Game 1 of the finals is Thursday night in Los Angeles.
 Magic general manager Otis Smith and coach Stan Van Gundy expressed doubt Monday whether Nelson could seriously return for the finals. Smith  who had repeatedly said Nelson will not play this season  said Monday a quicker recovery and the chance of winning a championship has forced him to at least take a look at Nelson.
 "It's still no in my mind " Smith said  adding that the team will explore the idea even if Nelson doesn't return for Game 1. "There's a smidgen of a chance he can play."
 Orlando was 2-0 against the Lakers this season. Nelson was Orlando's leading scorer in both those games  averaging 27.5 points. He has been lobbying the Magic for a chance at playing since the playoffs began. With each round the team advances the idea -- and the talk -- of him returning has grown.
 But Nelson would likely just be a shell of his All-Star form. He hasn't played in four months  and even he admits it will be difficult to convince the training staff and coaches that he isn't risking future damage.
 "A miracle has to happen " Nelson said.
Jameer Nelson's injured right shoulder can take contact and he's been cleared by doctors to practice ahead of Orlando's NBA finals series against the Lakers.
 Nelson has been lauded by players and coaches during the playoffs for his leadership. He has been sitting between the coaching staff and players on the Magic bench  offering pointers during timeouts and acting like "a fifth or sixth assistant coach " Smith said.
 But Smith worried from the beginning that Nelson would feel excluded. The two met before the playoffs to make sure Nelson wasn't tempted to rush back early.
