In this timely account, renowned political analyst Shmuel Rosner looks at the 2012 Presidential race through the lens of one of the most influential and fascinating voting blocs in America: American Jews. Though only 2 percent of the population, American Jews can wield an outsized impact on electoral outcomes in critical swing states, and even more so through their activism and political contributions. Rosner examines the chances of these traditionally Democratic voters switching to support a Republican, and the influence dramatic developments in Israel and the Middle East will have on the Jewish vote. Using on-the-spot reporting, statistics, interviews and expert analysis, Rosner provides fresh, original and non-partisan insights to help readers navigate a highly contentious election season. Whether you are a supporter of President Obama or Governor Romney, or if you are still undecided, this book is a must-read.
