Are most American Liberals of the Jewish Faith/Culture?

Answer 1

No but most Jewish ppl are liberal.

Answer 2

i'm a Jewish Democrat, and that i do no longer think of that being a "chum of Israel" makes a newborn-kisser a shoe-in with Jews in any respect. Jewish voters, like Christian voters, vote on a large style of subject concerns and maximum persons tend to be socially liberal, economically reasonable, and non-confrontational in our distant places coverage. Republican perspectives do no longer jive with that. previous that, Obama has no longer undermined Israel. he's maintained each and every point of economic and defense force help. he's maintained a definite point of netrality as a results of fact it relatively is frequently no longer healthful for a peace technique to demonize one element of the conflict. If something, Romney is undermining peace efforts by employing unilaterally putting forward Jerusalem the capital of Israel (a view which the State branch has in no way recommended, no longer even under Reagan), calling Palestinians culturally inferior, and kowtowing to the notoriously antisemitic Polish conservative events. yet I digress. extremely what i'm attempting to assert is that Jews at the instant are not Israelis. putting on a yarmulke and shaking hands with Bibi Netanyahu won't get you our votes. If something, it relatively is insulting to us.

Answer 3

I can't stand this stupid thinking. Liberals are always Democrats. Jews are not always Democrats. Religion means nothing in liberalism and in fact would mean nothing to a Liberal. Branding a Religion as anything but it's self is bigotry. Categorizing political and religious beliefs in the same group is bigotry. Separation of church and State is a tenet of the Constitution. Religion has no place in politics and politics has no say in religion.

Answer 4

That can't be true.
80-something percent of our nation is Christian...duh! Only 2% of our nation is Jewish.

To the third answerer, that was true when democrats were very conservative and republicans were very liberal. Since then, it's been reversed.
So, all those bad things you mention. It was the fault of conservatives.

To the fourth answerer, neither party is united. Saying that we must be united with the federal government during this time is a very un-American thing to say!!! Maybe you are not American?
Democrats can't feel united with the federal government for its terrible choices that, in their beliefs, harms America.

Answer 5

Liberalism come from all sort of people, whereas Conservatives come in one, White Male Christian. What does that tell you about conservatives?

Answer 6

I do not understand the self-hating Jew adherence to the Democrat Party. The Democrat Party loves the terrorist, hates Israel. Its terror arm, the KKK, lynched Jews in the South. The Democrat, if allowed, will hand over this nation to the Taliban out of PC. Then, the Taliban will behead its adversaries in a stadium.

I would like a Jew to explain this inexcusable, self-defeating loyalty to the enemy Democrat Party, a threat to the survival of the Jews and of Israel.

Answer 7

NO. I believe republicans love the jews more than they do America.

Answer 8

No, we sure aren't. And it doesn't take 10,000 words to make that point.

Answer 9

this question makes no since what so ever, Liberals are not Americans, proven fact. A true American stays United which is part of our heritage, hence the United States. So who really cares what faith they have? Ok this is for Steve j USA and the others that dont have a clue or they are blinded by hate for Bush or what ever reason they have for not getting educated on why they argue. it is a letter to our boys in Iraq. Dear American soldier in Iraq:

There are a few things you should know about how tens of millions of us back home feel about you and the fight you are waging. These things need to be said, especially now, given the fact that the head of one of America's two major political parties has announced that the war in Iraq is lost.

This war has not been lost. What has happened is that many Americans, for all sorts of reasons – some out of simple fatigue, some because they do not believe that war solves anything, some out of deep loathing for the present administration – do not believe that what you are doing is worth doing.

You know that what you are doing is worth continuing. You see on an almost daily basis the faces of people who count on you to help them make a freer society than they have ever known. You know that your presence in Iraq is all that stands between numberless men, women and children and a horrible death. But, for whatever reasons, the fate of these people and their country do not matter to those who feel you are wasting your time and our nation's resources in Iraq.
You know that the fight you wage is worth waging. You know that you are not, by and large, fighting Iraqis who do not want you there but fighting people from other countries who come into Iraq to blow up and maim as many innocent Iraqis as possible.

You know that you are fighting the most vicious and primitive ideology in the world today. It is the belief that one's God wants his followers to maim, torture and murder in order to spread a system of laws that sends societies back to a moral and intellectual state that is pre-civilization.

You know that the war you wage against these people and their totalitarian ideology is also necessary because a society unwilling to fight for its values does not have values worth sustaining. And for that reason, you in Iraq and many of us back home are worried about America.

You know that there is real good and real evil in the world. You have seen both more than any of us at home will probably see in a lifetime. Why so many in America and the West generally no longer believe that there is good and evil, let alone in the importance of having good vanquish evil, is a subject for a book. But that is the problem here. So when, God willing, you return healthy and victorious, you will have another battle to wage – on behalf of moral clarity. In that regard we are losing our way. Millions of our fellow Americans – often the best educated – do not understand that those who send young people to blow up weddings, kindergartens, marketplaces and college libraries in the promise of a paradise filled with young women are the Nazis of our time.

You know all these things. And tens of millions of us back home also know these things.

We see you as the best and brightest of our society. Even the New York Times, one of the mainstream media publications that do not understand the epic battle you are waging, acknowledged in an article by one of its embedded correspondents that few Americans of your age can come close to you in maturity, wisdom or leadership abilities.

It is unfortunate that the battle for moral clarity and moral courage in America is as divisive as the battle for freedom is in Iraq. But that is the nature of the world we live in. And it has ever been so. "Woe unto those who call evil good and good evil," wrote the Prophet Isaiah about 2,500 years ago. Not much has changed in two and a half millennia.

So Isaiah would be proud of you. Indeed, as a religious person, I believe with all my heart and soul that your work to uproot the greatest evil of our time and enable a people to build the first free Arab Muslim country is as holy, if not holier, as almost anything a minister, priest or rabbi does back home.

You probably knew all this. But you need to hear it anyway.

That, and thank you. Thank you very much.

Answer 10

American liberals come from different groups such as hippies, gays, abortionists and Jews.
