    Honest question. I'm not Black or Jewish. Just wondering, why do they vote overwhelmingly Democrat in each election?

    Jewish people are highly educated that's why. And the NAACP was co-founded by a rabbi and the jewish people fought for their civil rights even though it meant the KKK was going to blow up synagogues and terrorize them in the 1950's and early 60's.

    Jews made up half of the young people who participated in the Mississippi Freedom Summer in 1964. Leaders of the Reform Movement were arrested with Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. in St. Augustine, Florida, in 1964 after a challenge to racial segregation in public accommodations. Most famously, Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel marched arm-in-arm with Dr. King in his 1965 March on Selma.

    That's a big reason rednecks hate the Jewish people. That and because the Jews are intelligent and educated.

    Jews voting Democrat is a bit puzzling.

    Jews being so high income would benefit heavily from Republican tax cuts.

    Jews being disarmed of guns by Nazi Germany during the Holocaust should make Jews support Republican pro-gun 2nd amendment rights.

    Jews being discriminated by Blacks like in the Crown Heights Riots, or having Muslims who hate Jews more than everyone else, should make Jews more aware of minorities too.

    A combination of historical factors and best interests.

    Black people- The southern strategy.

    Jews- The promise of support for Israel at all costs. Besides them, many Jews tend to be quite secular if they're normal.

    It's smarter than voting Republican.

    But, Republicans typically are more pro-Israel.

    Just another puzzling factor of why do Jews vote Democrat?

    Culturally Jews are among the most left-wing of groups in existence. They were not only the originators of socialism, but also the primary torchbearers. They were disproportionately responsible for the Bolshevik revolution. They were behind the Frankfurt school, which was the primary source of political correctness. They have been associated with the far left as a group for a long time, and I don't see this changing anytime soon.

    Blacks vote Democrat largely for racist and socioeconomic reasons. They view Republicans as the "white people's party" and will vote against that almost unanimously. They are also more likely to be poor, which makes them more dependent on the Federal government, which strengthens their bond with the party that always promises to build a bigger and better welfare state, paid for by whitey.

    Democrats and Republicans are bi partisan for their unwavering support for Israel, which in my opinion is why Democrats are neo-liberals, and not progressives.

    Like I said, Jews prefer society to be secular and keep their religion to themselves, that is definitely not the Republicans.

    If Jews have been victims of discrimination, and have succeeded.

    Why would they think other minorities failing is from discrimination?

    That hardly makes sense.

    Most rednecks seem to love Jews today, merely because they read about Jews in the bible, and heard Israeli Jews are fighting Muslim terrorist.

    Again, which hardly makes sense, considering how Liberal Jews tend to be.

    So Jews vote Democrat because they are highly educated, yet the two least educated groups in the country vote Democrat at an even higher percentage. Weird.

    A quick Internet search shows the KKK has a long history of being Democrats. How did the Democrats trick the Blacks and the Jews into thinking otherwise?

    It's disgusting the way some secular Jews exploit the religious belief held by many Christians to advance their own agenda and the cause of Israel. They do everything they can in the West to destroy capitalism, destroy European and Western culture, sabotage the nation's demographics with that of the 3rd world, but the second Israel needs to be supported, they go to conservatives for support, because they know they can count on it. I'm speaking of some, not all, Jews.

    Jews want Goyim society to be secular, meanwhile Israel is hardly secular.

    So much so that Israel has no civil marriages.

    It only started some decades ago when the Democratic Party became an inclusive party for all Americans. While the Republican has become a party for white people only and it got worse with Trump its now becoming a party for bigots and racist people if one is not a racist or bigot they can not join Trump's train and Trump is about to take over the Republican Party.

    I'm not really a Democrat, or a Republican.

    I'm a nationalist who supports Fascist economics, National Healthcare, Conservative gun rights, anti-war like a hippy, eugenics, and a homogeneous society based upon deporting, and restricting minorities.

    What is that?

    I don't even consider myself American to tell you the truth.

    My views are more in aligned to Central -East Europe.

    The irony is that Israel has been run by a long line of people who are like Trump on steroids.

    It's just what they do---almost all of them are socialists and Marxists. They are usually too prejudiced, too exclusive to reach out to the GOP.

    Old Jewish couple I know are basically against the religious right due to previous Christian persecution of Jews.

    For blacks, its inertia and politics. When your parents, neighbors, friends, all vote one way then a mob mentality kicks in. And the "progressives" have worked diligently to capture the black vote, ranging from bribes to lies and propaganda and threats.

    Its clearly not in the black communities interest to be the guaranteed Democrat vote no-matter-what, that's recipe for being ignored and walked on. What has that loyalty to the Democrat party gotten the black community? Poverty, illiteracy, a destroyed social structure, hopelessness. But they are starting to wake up.

    On Jews it more difficult. I suspect the inertia and politics aspects are in play just like with blacks, but Jews are not nearly as captured as the black community. In 2008, 80% of Jews backed obama, in 2012 it was 60%. Maybe it has to do with illiteracy, the Democrats policies have made much of the black community illiterate and easy to control, while the Jews are still well educated and are seeing through the "progressive" lies.

    Revision history.

    Yes, the above forgets it was Democrats that were the KKK. Even into the 60s, it was almost exclusively a group of Democrats.

    Democrats ran the areas of Jim Crow laws.

    Everett Dirksen, Republican Senator kicked the Civil Rights law into operation. LBJ was stuck so he called on Dirksen.

    And it was not over slavery, though no doubt Democrat historians will use that as an excuse even during the 1950s, it was that blacks were simply discriminated against. In 1962, there was vast difference in how blacks were treated in CA, at Ft. Ord vs treatment by the locals at Ft. Benning, GA. I saw a part of the USA I did not know existed but for stories told to me by Mom.

    Jews make a mistake backing Democrats. But keep in mind too, Democrats really are for the rich. Jews often are rich so they back Democrats.
