I think Bibi would get at least a third of the Jewish vote. Could go higher if da Incompetent One keeps sucking up to our enemies and flipping the bird to our friends.
It’s one thing when my fellow Jews stupidly fail to vote for a Republican whose positions are far more consistent with their interests than those of the RAT candidate. When the candidate is actually Jewish they will be more receptive. Human nature.
I call these brain dead Jews. JINO Jews in name only!
“A great many American Jews are almost as brain washed as Blacks. They’d vote for a dried up turd just as long as it had a D next to it. They would never vote for a Republican”
Well, living in the Bay-Airhead area, even the Chabad people are somewhat left of center. Went a couple times when I was saying Kaddish for my mother back in '03, and there were a few minyanites discussing their open HATRED of all things Bush, even wishing they didn't have to fly through Houston to go to the East Coast.
Needless to say, I chose to say Kaddish (also when my dad passed in '07) in private rather than having to deal with the self-loathing k!kes that pose as Jews in this part of the country.
Obama - no doubt.
Ping...
without a doubt American Jewish voters would go to obama...78%
But then the same ones would vote for anyone with a D after the name.
Heck, I’d vote for Bibi over ALL the presidents since Reagan..
I can’t understand why conservatives would want to vote for a candidate who favors a massive eminent domain project....but what the heck.
Why many are secular surprises me
founder effect
noun Biology
the reduced genetic diversity that results when a population is descended from a small number of colonizing ancestors.
The vast majority of Jews in 1890 were in Imperial Russia suffering at the hands of the anti-semitic Czar.
The Rabbeim said at the time that it would be better to stay than go to the Golden Medina and assimilate.
The most pious stayed while the most predisposed to assimilation , apostasy and secularism became the core of American Jewry.
Unfortunately the pious ones then perished by the Nazis. The surviving minority is now the core of American orthodoxy

the thing about discussion often is the things said may not be what the hearer hears (yes I realize we are writing) but the principle stands I think.
Thank you for your comments. I appreciate them.
God’s hand is seen in the current ‘alyiah’ of Jews returning to Israel. His hand was in the scattering too. His Will ...Will be. Of that we can be certain. How? is a bit of a question as is ‘when?. His Word is vague on timing, it could be tomorrow or many years from now.
My point exactly... if you hit him on a bad day, your (sounds like bass) is grass...

Most are not Orthodox. The Russians aren’t. Niether are the Polish Jews who fled in the 1960’s. And neither is my father.
