Obama Losing Jewish Voters Over Fuzzy Israel Support

So - now we decide who is president based on Israel?

Odd - I thought he was president of the United States. I thought our foreign policy was supposed to be based on what was good for this country FIRST.

The world decided in the late 1940's that a group of people were treated badly and deserved a homeland/country. This, after they had attacked British holdings numerous times. They were future Israelis.

Now - when the world again wishes to right a wrong done to a group of people by providing a logical homeland/country - these same people given this type of break in the past are unwilling to offer the same hope to the Palestinians.... And the USA suddenly does not support what it championed years ago?

Hypocrisy. Influence buying. Lobbyists having too much voice.

We need to go to the European system - free tv time for political ads, no big money associated with elections, 3 months of campaigning - period.

Shame on this country for being so easily bought and pandering to the pressures from a tiny special interest group with much money and voice. Shame on them for putting a foreign country's interests over our own.
