Why won't my brakes bleed?

I drive a 91 Grand Voyager and I had air in my brake line. I bled all four brakes but the front drivers side brakes won't bleed and there's still air in the line. Why won't my brakes bleed, and is my front brake the reason there's air in the system even though I can't get fluid to come out?

    It's possible the Brake Line might be Clogged

    Or a Blockage at the Caliper.

    Take Bleeder Screw Completely Out,

    If now have Fluid Replace Bleeder.

    If No Fluid then Remove Brake Line

    If now have Fluid then Caliper Clogged..

    If Still No Fluid then Remove Line at Master Cylinder.

    If Now have Fluid then Line is Clogged.

    If No Fluid from Master then Master Defective.

    Open the wheel cylinder bleeder farthest from the master cylinder, keeping the master cylinder full till there is a steady flow of brake fluid then close the bleeder. Do this too all 4 wheels in order of farthest to closest. Do not start or touch the brakes during this process. This will take some time and best with 2 people , PS cool car you are working on !

    Are you bleeding brakes starting the farthest away from master cylinder and working next farthest and so on?
