  Jews don't just vote Democratic because of issue identification. Much of the Republican language excludes Jews -- to the point where the GOP may seem openly hostile for American Jewish voters.Certainly, it isn't a welcoming place for most Jews. Among Jews, only the true believer conservatives can stomach voting Republican.

        to teach the Christian bible in school or any other weird demands of the Christian right-wing. Maybe those weird Hasids but even then I doubt it.
