Why 80% of the Jews in USA vote for Dems,when GOP can serve Jewish & Israeli interests much better..? (Iraq, Glenn Beck)

[harrycrat]

I try to think the reasons that Jews in USA vote Dems by 80%,
even as the Dems,with their pacifism,put Israel in danger ( by being against Iraq type interventions )
&
with their socialism disproportionately hurt,damage & weaken the Jews,who are the richest ethnic group in USA...
Theoretically,the Jews should vote like the anticommunist rich Cubans,exiled from communist Cuba,75% GOP...

After all,the Jews are victims of the (national ) socialists Mussolini & Hitler & of the communist Stalin..

And they benefit only by capitalism...

Leftwing,they lose,rightwing they win. The more to the right,the better...

I especially welcome views of Jews,to explain to us
this "Jewish paradox "...

PLz,let's not waste time about ancient history,when the Dems could pose as the "party of minorities "...
I am talking about 1980 till today...the last 30 years

Simple answer: Most US Jews are socially liberal.

[padcrasher]

There are stupid Jews and smart Jews. Just like every other ethnic vote.

Stupid Jews promote war and bigotry.

Smart Jews value social justice, fairness, peace.

That's just the way it is.

[WatermelonRat]

Because Jews are the ones deciding what's in their best interest, not you.

They're apparently much smarter than you too considering the number of factual errors in your post.

Plus most Jews (most people in general) are intelligent enough to see through the utterly ridiculous attempt to equate all these things to each other and then to liberal politics in the US - I mean, come on. Only the Glenn Beck crowd actually buys into totally nonsensical BS.

Probably because the Republican party of late has become synonymous with Christian fundmentalism.

Its called hedging the bet. They know that hard right christians will support the jews based on their religous beliefs. No need to dump a ton of money in that direction.
So they dump the money in the Dems campaign coffers to ensure they get what they want no matter what.

Wow. Jews benefit only by capitalism? Would you like to say more on this?

The GOP would rather bendover and take orders from Tel Aviv and do anything to appear pro-Israeli instead of putting America first. Gotta love that Christian zionist base of the GOP. Most American Jews are smart and tend to be socially sophisticated and probably would have a tough time aligning themselves with the party of Christian theocrats.

Which likely worries them, since many of them think they need the Jews to fulfill prophecy.
