1) Amnesty International doesn't involve itself in US politics (you can
check this yourself by going to Amnesty.org).

2) By including an organization such as Amnesty International, but not an
organization such as the American Medical Association, the results will be
skewed left, I have no doubt.

This paper wouldn't make it as a master's level thesis.
