Buzzfeed: “Good” Jews, “Bad” Jews, And Bernie Sanders
Despite how it was phrased, the Israel question wasn’t really for American Jewish voters anyway. According to a poll released Friday
by the Jewish Electoral Institute, Jewish voters continue to identify as strongly pro-Israel, but still rank a candidate’s stance on Israel at the bottom of a list of 16 policy priorities (protecting Medicare and Social Security, and health care, rank at the top). Another poll
found that the number one issue for Jewish voters was defeating Donald Trump. The Jewish Electoral poll also found that Jewish voters give Sanders the lowest favorability rating out of the field of candidates, but it still stands at at 52%. The Forward recently found
that, among rabbis at least, the bulk of their donations went to Elizabeth Warren.
