Sweetie, that's not good. Lots of people in Israel DO get to vote in US elections. They are US citizens. Many of them are registered in Florida, California, etc.

None,(and that wasn't a clever question) however, for a change and for progress, it would be nice to have the president of our country be liked...YES, it helps. It also shows that many in the world think it's time for the Republicans to GO!

And most of them are Democrats who believe in a woman's right to choice. The vast majority of this voting block will vote for Barack Obama in November.

They arent on the bitterness express like some people. Sweetie.

Yes, but McCain is well-liked. He isn't Bush.

McCain helped us reestablish relations with Vietnam. His son is a soldier in Iraq. He adopted an Indian girl.

Pitting Obama against McCain just makes Obama look smaller and smaller in a lot of people's eyes. Once people in other countries learn more about McCain, they'll like him.

Exactly the point.

Our image would be reinvented instantly. He already has affected our image positively in worldwide polls conducted by the BBC and he isnt even in office yet.

What do you think of your man now?
He voted against John Roberts.

He voted against Samuel Alito.

Jews in Israel care about Israeli politics, not a woman's right to choose.

Was your post a joke or what?

McCain's best friend is Lieberman, who is a Jew. The Jewish newspapers are touting McCain like there is no tomorrow. They liked Hillary best, but McCain is second best. Obama is way out there somewhere.
