While Alan Dershowitz is a staunch liberal, he’s threatening to leave the Democratic Party should Rep. Keith Ellison (D-MN) become the next chairman for the national committee. Dershowitz, a renowned attorney and Israel supporter, said he would resign due to Ellison’s positions on the Israeli-Palestinian issue and his association with Louis Farrakhan (via Washington Examiner):
Speaking on Fox Business, Dershowitz said there is a divide in the Democratic Party over Jewish issues, particularly the support of Israel, or lack thereof, offered by the Obama administration. Dershowitz said Ellison's past praise of Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan is enough to make him and other Jews leave the party. "It does, and if they now appoint Keith Ellison, who worked with Farrakhan, to be chairman of the DNC you're going to see a lot of people leave" Dershowitz said. "I'm going to tell you right here on this show and this is news, if they appoint Keith Ellison to be chairman of the Democratic Party, I will resign my membership to the Democratic Party after 50 years of being a loyal Democrat."

I am SO enjoying the aftermath of Election 2016.
This asshat has no credibility. He won’t leave his masters. Believe me.
He’ll leave the Dems as soon as Streisand leaves the country.
Dershowitz has known they are the party of Allah (Satan) for a long time, it’s the publicly acknowledging it that causes him a problem.
And he will then join the__________Party.
What would he become? Independent? Openly socialist?
You mean, Professor, Obama and Kerry selling out Israel, despite their promises to cover Israel’s back, are not enough?
“I am SO enjoying the aftermath of Election 2016.”
Best.
Election.
Ever.
Yup. He won’t leave. The Dummycrap party is in his DNA and tattoo’d on most American Jews.
He’ll resign his membership while continuing to support dems. It’ll be like when the dems discarded Lieberman and he ran as an independent and still caucused with the dems after he was elected.
Shoulda left when Barky became the nominee in 2008, Dishwasher.
genius lawyer = slow learner.
Ask me if I care.
Yeah, really. Just one more piece of confirmation, and, and, and I'll move to Canada or New Zealand.
There is nothing wrong with Keith Ellison Allen.
Keith is a Muslim and thinks blacks should be shipped off to live in their own country just like all the other white Democrats.
Keith Ellison for DNC Chair!
If the party does not fit, you must quit.
I ‘m rooting for Keith X as DNC Chair, he’s a great choice LMAO.
“I am SO enjoying the aftermath of Election 2016.”
Best.
Election.
Ever.
BUMP!
Sorry Alan, but I was never dumb enough to be a member of the Democrat Party in the first place.
Pizza Party!
McCain and Graham would probably rush to one of them which is fine with me since we have to shed the RINO wing of the democrat party that pretends to be Republican and Conservative.
NRO can start one of their own, too. It's about time the jackasses that are socialist on the one hand and merchantilists on the other but both claiming they're "globalist" all get together and go hard left well beyond even Barry and Hildabeast.
We're damn near a colony of the international elite just as much as we were a colony of England and it's time to wake up, stop the merchantilist BS in its tracks, and rebuild this nation into the United States rather than tolerating anymore.
