If that were true wouldn’t Jews have become more wholesome and normal, more average in their voting and politics and political activism and leadership, rather than having always been so radical and left wing in America?

First of all, Jews are what you call, “wholesome” and “normal” in the same way as anybody else.

The problem is a warped sense of which causes to champion.

Jews always favor CHANGE (for the betterment of humanity), that is the definition of Justice.

Jews are not hardcore, radical Leftists as they were in the 30’s through the 60’s. Then, “Liberal” meant Democratic as in the JFK Democratic, not today's RADICAL, Anti-Israel Democratic Party.

Habits are hard to change and Jewish voters still, knee jerk reflex tend to vote Democratic. Old habits die hard.

Obama is Black (=equality in the eyes of Jews).
He offered “CHANGE” (=more Justice in the eyes of Jews).

He offered major Reform (=moving to a better future in the eyes of Jews).

He set out to withdraw troops from the world (=less militarization, good for peace-loving Jews).

He tried to rescind Bush policies (=better leadership and representation in the eyes of Jews).

All in all, HE, the HOLY ONE, offered HOPE (=better future for America and humankind in the eyes of Jews).

All of this support for Obama BACKFIRED on the Jews (of Israel) and for all of America's global interests. It was not only the tiny Jewish minority that voted for this loser. There were, Jews like me who voted against him, twice and lobbied my fellow Jews to not be sucked up into his campaign of empty rhetoric and weakness. I failed in that effort.
The Bible (Torah) says that Jews are a “tough or stiff-necked people” and that is why, they are hard to convince or sway. This means that even in the face of certain realities (how Obama is destroying America and Israel) it will still be hard to convince them of this fact.

My only hope is that after taking knocks, the Jewish community will snap out of their fog and see the error in their ways by going back to the Republican party or equivalent, whatever may be.
