Isn`t Weise a Jewish name? Like Weisenthal? Pretty strange, but on the other hand, New Yorkers electing a Nazi as Senator is even stranger, or maybe not being that they are all dim-o-rats.
Only the colors of der Nazi party for Hitlery. Red, black und white!
Yes...that struck me also. A native American with a German or German-Jewish name. Also, you might be thinking of Weiss which means "white" in German and is a common German-Jewish name.
