[quote=ocrenter][quote=dumbrenter][quote=paramount]I’ll vote for any candidate who puts their constituents needs before Israel’s.

I only know of one candidate that meets that criteria: Gary Johnson[/quote]

second that.
Bibi this Bibi that in one of the debates (VP ones I think) was sickening to watch.
Don’t their constituents have any self-respect anymore?
If these guys are so obsessed with Bibi and his “line” why don’t they go help him over there instead of wasting time in office here?[/quote]

there is just so much pandering to special interests from both sides of the aisle. And the Israel lobby is for better or for worse one of the more powerful forces around.[/quote]

Actually they are not that a powerful lobby. This is why I just don’t get the pandering part. AARP, NRA, major pharma and the street special interests beat them by miles in terms of influence but I don’t see politicians on either side sucking up so shamelessly to these groups in public.
