Not all demographic shifts are against us. Consider this, in another generation current trends could mean that NYC Jews become a GOP voting block.

Dan Greenfield has been writing about this for years.

Unlike reform Jews, most of which are liberals and are pro-abortion, rarely having more than a couple of kids, Orthodox Jews have very large families.

IF a majority of Jews were more than ethnically identified as Jews, as in faithful to God, and IF a majority of Christians were more than casually identified as Christians, as in faithful to God, the Democrat Party would not exist.

““We have a community that is large, that is growing, that is diverse and that is challenged by poverty, by elements of disengagement, and also strengthened by diversity, by growing areas of Jewish involvement,” said Steven M. Cohen, a leading sociologist of the Jewish community and one of the report’s three authors.”

I read that twice trying to figure out what it says. Classic sociologists drivel.

Even if true, it’s not a large enough group to make much difference against United Socialism.

Yep, but after all, that is what he is - a sociologist.

Jews are only 2% of the population. But, the liberal types of which comprise 90% of that population are in such demographic decline that they will only be 1/3 of what they are now in the next generation. That is a huge plus for us and then the growth of the orthodox who really live up to Jewish religion and culture will l\be another boon for us.

It will affect New York City politics.
National politics not so much.

” Consider this, in another generation current trends could mean that NYC Jews become a GOP voting block. “

But a drop in the bucket compared to the increases in the Asian and Hispanic populations.

“Eleven percent of Jewish households in the area are on food stamps.”

This is actually a LOWER percentage than the country as a whole now - which is 14%.

“New York’s Jews are poorer, less educated and more religious than they were 10 years ago, according to a landmark new study of the city’s Jewish population.

They’re also less liberal: More than half of the Jews in New York City live in Orthodox or Russian-speaking homes, both of which lean heavily conservative.”

I take that as a lefthanded/underhanded/backhanded swipe meaning conservatives are uneducated................or am I paranoid?

I think he is just saying that a diverse community presents problems, whereas a community of diversity is a good thing. And that diverse diversity is best case. Because a diverse community is divided, and a community of diversity isn’t. He is making a statement that has the words “diverse” and “diversity” in one sentence. So he obviously knows what he is talking about.
