Many older Jews who might otherwise vote
for a Democrat are unlikely to vote for Barack Obama strictly based on the
Israel issue. Much of their information on this issue comes from
fear-mongering, out-of-context sound-bytes and plain and simple lies. There
are even terrible rumors about Obama being anti-Semitic or a Holocaust
denier. By gently educating our older generations, we can help convince them
that Obama is the best choice for Israel and America, and secure their votes
in November.
