i changed my pads on both side. i find only the front passenger brake bleeds only. the front driver side doesnt bleed during bleeding process. could it be the brake booster? i removed the master cylinder and cleaned it for any cloggage. put it back on and still cant bleed on the front driver side. any helpful suggestion please?

I did this yesterday with a 96 Sentra no fluid came out of the drivers side and right rear wheel cylinder-it came out to be a bad master cylinder. Hence: The master cylinder is the one that creates hydraulic pressure within the brake system if it doesn't do its job nothing is gonna come out from the other end. Here is a video and guide below to help you bleed the brake system correctly.

Please run down these guides and report back. You can try a rebuild kit and make sure the line that goes to the drivers side is open.
