Name something I said that isn’t true. I made the point that the prejudice towards Jews when they first came to this country and continuing for decades up to the sixties certainly didn’t help them embrace conservative politics. That’s all. They were made to feel in subtle and not so subtle ways that they weren’t real Americans. But if Reagan (not exactly your typical squishy Rino) could get 40% of the Jewish vote, then it isn’t ridiculous to believe that more American Jews can be attracted to conservative principles. I mean, who are David Horowitz...Harry Stein..David Mamet...Ron Silver? There’s a lot more. All were liberal Jews who switched to conservatism. Your earlier posts incidicated that you thought Jews were always and forever leftists, and nothing could be done to attract them. Admit what you said, and let’s move on.

Reagan got 39% of the Jewish vote, then only 31% voted for him in his landslide reelection in 1984.

Jews are liberal, accept that, as a supposed conservative you sure are doing a lot of American bashing, and Republican bashing, to pretend something about a dependable left wing voting block, I have no idea why.
