The Far Left is Affecting the Presidential Race

Each year, pollsters ask American voters who they sympathize with more between Israel and Palestine. In 2016, Americans sympathized with Israel over Palestine 54 percent-19 percent per Pew, and 62 percent-15 percent per Gallup. Both pollsters found that large margined majorities/pluralities of Republicans, Democrats, and independents sympathize with Israel.

Put another way, if Israel and Palestine were presidential nominees, Israel would win 50 states and DC and all 538 electoral votes. Presidents Nixon and Reagan won nationally by 23 percent and 18 percent, respectively, point margins and captured 49 states. Israel’s 35 percent (Pew) and 47 percent (Gallup) margins would easily grab that last one.

The results continue a decades’ long trend — one which strengthened after 2001. By acquiescing to Bernie Sanders’s platform committee choices James Zogby and Cornel West (both BDS supporters who seek to alter the platform regarding Israel/Palestine), Democrats risk allowing the far-left to affect the presidential race.

well said, and from a swing state no less! I hope Democrats listen.
