The so-called democrat party may as well drop that and call themselves the enemy islamists they are.

Prior to the turn of the century, most Jewish Americans lived in the South (Charleston had largest Jewish population of any US city), where they were treated very well. Most of these Jews originally came from Germany.

All this anti-redneck sentiment among Jews began with the migration of Eastern European Jews between 1880 and 1920.

These Jews (whose descendants make up the bulk of the US Jewish population) fled the pogroms of Russia, Poland, Ukraine, and Romania, where they were persecuted by rural, religious nationalists, who didn’t have much education. So they came to America with an inherent fear of patriotic people from the sticks who go to church.

What they fail to realize, is that in a righteous nation like America, patriotic people from the sticks who go to church are the best friends the Jewish people could ever have.

They're undoubtedly seeking to go on an all-expense paid vacation to a gulag of their choice.

Charleston’s Jewish community, the largest in America till the mid 19th century, dates to the late 17th century. But they were Sephardic, fleeing the Inquisition, not German or European till after the Napoleonic wars. Interestingly many came from the Caribbean and Brazil from the Carribean and Brazil via London and the Netherlands. NY also Sephardic in the mid 17th century, the first directly from Brazil. The only Jewish military cemetery outside Israel is in Richmond.

Secular Jews tend to be Democrat first, Jews third or fourth, only when it is advantageous.
