McCain or Obama With the U.S presidential elections finally arriving in November, many people are still undecided on who to elect to the White House.Many Jews and Israelis have claimed that they will vote for the candidate who is better for Israel; lacking citizenship, my family cannot vote in the upcoming elections. If given the opportunity however, John McCain would win the support of each of my family members. Our support for McCain does not stem from his own policies and statements regarding Israel, but rather from his opponents background and personal ties throughout his entire life.The issue we find most concerning is Barack Hussein Obama's (yes, that is his middle name) relationship with his pastor Jeremeiah Wright. For 20 years, Obama attended Wright's Church, had his children baptized by Wright, and has called Wright his friend. This is the same Pastor who said "God Damn America" and is known for his anti-semitic remarks. My main concern: It took Obama 20 years to realize that his pastor is a racist, anti-America, anti-Semitic person? Obama cut off his allegiances to the Church after 20 years, and only once he began running for President. Obama's own memoir The Audacity of Hope was inspired by one of Wright's sermons. While someone could downplay Obama's relationship to Wright, what can explain Obama's close connection with many other similarly racist and anti-Israel people? Is this all just a coincidence? He promises change and the American public is eating it up without further questions. He is a young Senator with very few years of political experience (especially when compared to the standard Presidential candidate) and his baseless messages have inspired Americans fed up after eight years of Bush. He has zero military experience (which should be a prerequisite for becoming a President) and I can easily question his patriotism. The next President will most certainly face the most daunting tasks of any President yet, and will have to be able to respond to these threats. I find myself agreeing with Hillary Clinton that Obama is the last person I would want picking up the red phone at 3AM.

Jewish Americans should vote for President based on who is better for the United States and its People.

In this case, I don’t think there’s any doubt who that is.
