Multiple Democratic presidential candidates said Thursday that they wont attend the American Israel Public Affairs Committees annual conference in Washington next week.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont, former U.S. Rep. Beto ORourke of Texas, Sen. Kamala Harris of California and Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand of New York, are among the 2020 contenders who have decided not to attend. Former Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz, who is considering an independent bid for president, will also avoid the AIPAC conference.
It comes as the liberal advocacy group MoveOn has called on Democratic presidential candidates to skip this years policy conference, saying AIPAC had tried to thwart the Iran nuclear deal and had employed anti-Muslim and anti-Arab rhetoric. By not attending, the Democratic candidates can demonstrate their progressive bona fides in an increasingly crowded 2020 field.

disgusting JINOS.
Yet another reason why I don't go to Temple in the SF Bay Area... The Self-Loathing "Jews" around here still think 0bama walks on water and Hitler-y is the second coming. Meanwhile, Trump is anti-Semitic, hates Israel and will start a second Holocaust any day now.
Oy Vey!
I hope Stephen Miller tops his 2018 AIPAC masterpiece speech this year. If Trump can really, genuinely swing 30-40% of American Jews into his corner, fugadaboutit, 2020 is hugely over bigly...
from your lips to God’s ear...
For a group that is demonstrably anti-Semitic and certainly anti-Israel, I count 3 (Schumer, Sanders and Schiff) that I know are Jewish, 1 (Blumenthal) that I'm not sure but I'm guessing he is, and Hillary, who's son-in-law is Jewish.
What a group of Self-Loathing Putzes this is!
WOW! This shows how far the dems have come in bending to the Arab wing of the party. Just a short hike and they’ll be in line with Corbin and the anti-Semites in the UK Labour party.
I don’t understand why Jews continue to fund these campaigns.
I have a best friend who is Jewish and he is all for Trump and we talk smack about the moonbats and are embarased by our Senators since we live in East Coast sanctuary city! If you do not laugh you will cry.
