Default Brake Problem

I got a 86 mustang that I just bought and the brakes are really soft. I tried bleeding the brakes but no fluid came out of the passanger rear bleed valve or the front drivers bleed valve. Fluid is getting to the lines and when I pull the lines off and pump the brakes fluid is getting pumped through. Could the problem be that the brake cyclinders are bad?

The bleeders may be clogged up. Take them off and clean them or replace them.
