May I suggest that the site should have a daily sticky thread where anyone who wants an excuse can find a reason to bash American Jews for how they vote. Because we all know that the minuscule number of Jews in the US elected Obama and therefore Israel should pay the penalty.
Actually there should be two such threads. On the other one those American Jews who vote based on their support for Israel should be bashed for being traitors to the US and Israel Firsters.
I was around during Johnson's presidency. He made a few antisemitic slurs. The press and bankers were frequent targets. That's why I included him.
In the fwiw department, I was around during Eisenhower's presidency too, but wasn't old enough to follow the politics. I am not Jewish, but anyone who slurs Jews are not high on my list of favorite people.

I’m not old enough to have a vivid memory of the Johnson Administration however I never heard or read of any anti Semitism from Johnson.
On the contrary here is a detailed report of his affinity towards Jews and Israel.

You will find more such information if you search google.
However, if 60% of the Democrats' money came from that same group then they probably did have quite an influence on the outcomes.
If that were true then it would be wise to review the donations that came into the McCain campaign from groups dedicated to accomplishing an agenda. If the numbers are/were similar then it's time to identify the man behind the curtain.
We spend far too much time battling our allies while the enemies laugh at our foolishness.
