(CBS)  This analysis was written by the CBS News polling unit.


According to exit polls conducted in 30 primary states, Jewish Democratic primary voters overall supported Hillary Clinton over Barack Obama - 54 percent chose Clinton compared to 43 percent who chose Obama. Jewish primary voters made up 4 percent of the total vote in the Democratic primary states polled.

Jewish women over 45 were very solidly behind Clinton’s candidacy, and she won among Jewish Democratic primary voters of all income and education levels. Still, Obama won the support of Jewish men under 65, and he also won among both men and women under 30, those who consider themselves very liberal, and those who view the war in Iraq as the country’s most important problem.

Looking ahead, support for Clinton in the Democratic primaries may not indicate a problem for Obama in November among the country’s Jewish voters. According to CBS News national polls conducted from February to May, Jewish registered voters overall would choose either Obama or Clinton over John McCain in the general election.

AGE AND GENDER

As with Democratic primary voters overall, Clinton’s support among Jewish voters increased as the age of the voters increased. Obama won a majority of Jewish voters under 30, but they made up just a tenth of the Jewish voting population. The candidates were divided among Jewish voters between 30 and 44, while Clinton won among Jewish voters who were older.

Obama won among Jewish men, but Jewish women voted in larger numbers, and they supported Clinton by a wider margin.

Overall, 44 percent of Jewish Democratic men voted for Clinton and 53 percent voted for Obama. Among women, 61 percent voted for Clinton and 36 percent voted for Obama.

Most Jewish men and women under 30 voted for Obama, and most over 65 voted for Clinton, but there was a large gender divide among voters between 30 and 65. Men in that age range voted for Obama - particularly between 30 and 44 (69 percent to 28 percent). But women between 30 and 44 voted for Clinton by about the same margin.

INCOME AND EDUCATION

Jewish Democratic primary voters are comparatively wealthy - more than half have incomes over $100,000 a year while only a quarter do among Democratic primary voters overall. Still, a majority of Jewish voters of all income levels supported Clinton.

Jewish Democratic primary voters are likewise more educated than Democratic primary voters overall - 79 percent have at least a college degree and more than half have a post-graduate degree. Still, most supported Clinton regardless of their level of education, though the margin narrows among those with a post-graduate education.

POLITICAL PHILOSOPHY

Nearly seven in 10 Jewish primary voters were self-described liberals - far more than Democratic primary voters overall - but just how liberal they considered themselves had large implications for their vote. Most Jewish voters who said they were very liberal - slightly more than a quarter - voted for Obama, while most of those who said they were somewhat liberal - 4 in 10 overall - voted for Clinton. Moderates also voted for Clinton.

THE ISSUES

As with Democratic primary voters overall, Jewish Democratic primary voters picked the economy first as the most important problem facing the country today (45 percent), though they were more likely to choose the war in Iraq - 36 percent of Jewish voters compared to 27 percent among all Democratic primary voters.

And like other Democratic primary voters, Jewish voters who picked Iraq as the country’s most important problem mostly voted for Obama. Most Jewish voters who picked the economy or health care chose Clinton.

LOOKING AHEAD TO THE GENERAL ELECTION

Although Jewish Democratic voters favored Clinton in the primaries, Jewish registered voters overall say they would support either Obama or Clinton in a November match-up with McCain. According to CBS News Polls conducted from February to May, both Obama and Clinton would win among Jewish voters nationally by a comfortable margin.

If the candidates were Obama and McCain, the polls show Obama would get 65 percent of the vote of Jewish registered voters to 28 percent for McCain. If the candidates were Clinton and McCain, Clinton would get 68 percent to 26 percent for McCain.

And Jewish registered voters have a more favorable opinion of Obama (61 percent) than they do of Clinton (51 percent), though both are viewed favorably.

For all you predjudiced bigots out there, here''s some news:

Yes, Barak Hussein Obama is part black and part Muslim and he is a Christian.

And I say, who would be better at addressing the problems of black youth in our inner cities by citing his own life as a positive example. Obama or the old white guy?

And who would be better at confronting the Islamic extremists and our not so democratic Arab pseudo-allies in the Middle East by saying "This is America! This is what WE can do!" Who would carry more weight Obama or the old white guy?

Not to hard to decide now, is it?

Jewish Americans that place the interests of Israel over those of the U.S. should move to Tel Aviv, and stop meddling in U.S. affairs.

Now, it has become the ISM%u2019s time to deconstruct religious dogma of Israel belonging to the Jews as is preached in US churches and to increase the number of black churches in America that are working in %u201Csolidarity%u201D with this program. Jeremiah Wright%u2019s church is one of them. Even though the national synod of the United Church for Christ rescinded a boycott and divestment plan against Israel, a wing of the UCC church keeps trying to get it reinstated. That wing includes Reverend Wright%u2019s Trinity UCC Church in Chicago. Few people know also, that there are many Muslim members of Reverend Wright%u2019s %u201CChristian%u201D church, a close ally of Sabeel.

Led by a Palestinian Christian pastor named Naim Ateek, Sabeel%u2019s purpose is as part of the ISM to especially convince churches in America that the diminishing Christian population in the West Bank, particularly Bethlehem, is not due to persecution by the Muslim majority in the Palestinian Authority against Christians caused Christian flight, but because of Israel%u2019s Jews and %u201Cthe occupation.%u201D In order to achieve this, Sabeel practices something called %u201Creplacement theology %u201C which aligns itself closely with the ideas of its Muslim fundamentalist allies.

Obama is just giving the jews lip service, he will change the political winds and will support Palestine over Isreal, HAMAS is betting on it.

Sabeel has been actively working in cooperation with Chicago%u2019s Trinity UCC among certain other politically active churches in America to promote anti-Israel and even anti-Semitic beliefs that can erode American Christian support for Israel and hasten Israel%u2019s destruction. And Pastor Jeremiah Wright, pandering to his majority black congregation, has been teaching his own replacement theology, only this time its called %u201Cblack replacement theology.%u201D Jesus was not a Jew, says Wright, but a %u201Cblack man.%u201D Trinity UCC%u2019s relationship with the anti-Semitic Louis Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam (funded by anti-Israel Libya) fits in nicely with this formula also. The Christian religious icon is no longer a Jew, but a black man and to accept this interpretation is the way to salvation for the black man. This not only deconstructs American church views of the legitimacy of Israel, but has a nice foothold with the likes of the Nation of Islam in the US black community.

I attended an AIPAC (Israel lobby) conference two years ago where another black candidate for congress, Barbara Lee (D) Oakland, was in attendance as the representative for Oakland/Berkeley. Ms. Lee sat very respectfully as she was fawned over by a crowd of Jewish Israel supporters and acted as if she was really concerned about Israel. Ms. Lee even smiled at me personally as she left. Meanwhile, she was the only member of Congress who voted against going after Bin Laden after 9/11 in Afghanistan and also supports groups like Hamas, Hizballah and Al Awda in their anti-Semitic goals. Congressman Wexler needs to understand that what Obama says to a meeting of Jews will not translate into what he does once he is in office. In that regard, Ali Abunimah of Al Awda is probably right about Obama going to work for the Palestinians once in office Obama%u2019s staffers certainly suggest the same.

The question is if we want a man in the White House who will regularly give his ear to the likes of a Reverend Wright, his and Sabeel%u2019s replacement theologies, and pro-terrorist propagandists like Ali Abunimah on a regular basis? In one sense, Obama could be considered the ISM%u2019s Manchurian candidate given his wide connections to ISM activists and campaign movements such as the Wheels of Justice Tour, Joseph Carr a.k.a. Joseph Smith, Hannah Mermelstein, Anna Baltzer and others.

The only data that matters is about one person one vote.

In the general election, his caucus rig-up skills is totally disabled. Then the reality tells us that the undemocratic party will begin the election without MI, FL, WV, Kentucky, Texas, Ohio and more. After that McCain is going to split with him.

What that means is a landslide losses for this bitter empty suit and his racist black community.

His stupid anti-American church after collecting $15m grants from Americans, would be forced to raise fund for their ex-pastor''s $10m dream house by themselves.

So long the undemocratic party which is going to lose many seats to the republican because the people are angry at their double standards and filthy distortions.

Obama just doesn''t get it ...
Obamas Racist religion is the problem%u2026He claims to be a Christian ...this is NOT Christianity...

The Obamas have practiced "Black Theology" from the writing of Marxist, James H. Cone%u2026 for 20 years !
this is what his church taught his daughters on Sundays.....
%u201CBlack theology refuses to accept a God who is not identified totally with the goals of the black community. If God is not for us and against white people, then he is a murderer and we had better kill him. The task of black theology is to kill gods who do not belong to the black community. Black theology will accept only the love of God which participates in the destruction of the white enemy. What we need is the divine love as expressed in black power which is the power of black people to destroy their oppressors here and now by any means at their disposal. Unless God is participating in his holy activity, we must reject his love.%u201D

How Can A Man who has these beliefs represent all Americans ??

%u2026and Obama himself%u2026 before TUCC%u2026.

Malcolm X%u2019s autobiography seemed to offer something different,%u201D Obama wrote.
%u201CHis repeated acts of self-creation spoke to me; the blunt poetry of his words,
his unadorned insistence on respect, promised a new and uncompromising order,
martial in its discipline, forged through sheer force of will.%u201D

While working as a community organizer for a group of churches in Chicago, Obama
was repeatedly asked to join Christian congregations, but begged off.

How can this man represent all Americans ???

"Obama employed and continues to employ several Farrakhan acolytes in high
positions on his Illinois and U.S. Senate campaign and office staffs."

Remember 1st step DISARM...

OBAMA is standing in front of the camera himself for 52 seconds explaining how he will disarm the USA.

What we are talking about here IS NOT about politics and the differing
views concerning issues.....this is about the potential literal destruction of
this country by our enemies and our inability to defend ourselves against those
attacks.

This is a very short (52 seconds) video by Barak Obama in his own words
about how he plans to destroy our defense capabilities if elected.

Hussein Obama is a Muslim. He has not renounced his Muslim birth, at which
time, he received his Allah-inspired name. He must become an apostate to Islam
for him to truly not be Muslim -- and publicly announce this apostasy. This is
what he MUST do....but he will never do this. This Muslim can claim to be of ANY
religion, but as long as he does not become an apostate, he REMAINS Muslim!!!!

!JERUSALEM - Sen. Barack Obama''s Chicago church reprinted a manifesto by
Hamas...} This comes to show you why people still believe Obama is a muslim and
that his so-called church has nothing to do with christianity. The following
facts cannot be denied: #1 he was born to a muslim father which automatically
makes him a muslim. #2 he was raised by his muslim step-father. #3 he attended
mosques and madrasas from his childhood. #4 he is a member of a church that
sympathizes with Hamas and hates America. #5 he is endorsed by Farrakhan and the
nation of islam.

For all those here who''re assuring us that Obama is not a muslim, obviously you
don''t have any idea what being a muslim is. In the muslim world, anyone born to
a muslim father is automatically a muslim. Sure Obama attends some so-called
christian church, but as revealed recently, the church has very little to do
with christianity, and it is preocuppied with hating America. The sermons in
there don''t sound much different than those in mosques where some of the most
radical islamists clerics preach. With these facts in mind, I am still not
certain that Hussein Obama is not a muslim. And just because he says he isnt''t,
that doesn''t make it true. He will say anything to take the nomination away from
Hillary. Since when did we start believing politicians?

(JERUSALEM - Sen. Barack Obama%u2019s Chicago church reprinted a manifesto by Hamas that defended terrorism as legitimate resistance, refused to recognize the right of Israel to exist and compared the terror group%u2019s official charter - which
calls for the murder of Jews - to America%u2019s Declaration of Independence.

The Hamas piece was published on the %u201CPastor%u2019s Page%u201D of the Trinity United
Church of Christ newsletter reserved for Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr.

The revelation follows a recent WND article quoting Israeli security officials
who expressed %u201Cconcern%u201D about Robert Malley, an adviser to Obama who has
advocated negotiations with Hamas and providing international assistance to the
terrorist group.

In his July 22, 2007, church bulletin, Wright reprinted an article by Mousa
Abu Marzook, identified in the newsletter as a %u201Cdeputy of the political bureau
of Hamas.%u201D According to senior Israeli security officials, Marzook, who resides in Syria
alongside Hamas chieftain Khaled Meshaal, is considered the %u201Cbrains%u201D behind
Hamas, designing much of the terror group%u2019s policies and ideology. Israel possesses what it says is a large volume of specific evidence that Marzook has
been directly involved in calling for or planning scores of Hamas terrorist
offensives, including deadly suicide bombings. He was also accused of attempting
to set up a Hamas network in the U.S.

Nangin3,
I reccomend you either buy both books (Obama''s) and read them thoroughly...or you can go to the many sites that would specificaly give you the right quote of what he said. ex: snopes.com
Obama never said anything about siding with the muslims... he was talking about the japanese during WWII.
Do not take every email you receive as true to its writings.. it will help you in the future to distinguish between facts and speculations.

It''s pretty typical - The Old Guard Jewish Democrats have over the years managed to be manipulated & exploited by the Clintons.

It doesn''t take a rocket scientist to figure out how Hillary managed to be win the Senator''s race in NY. You have to keep in mind just what political faction controls the polictics there.

Here in Pa. Rendell made it a point to endorse Hillary. You''ll find that a large amount of her contributions come from the Jewish segment.

It''s really pretty simple Bill made deals with the NY Jewish constituents in return that they support Hillary for senator. But then most of you have that figured out already.

Even when Bill was going to make a deal with PLO to sell out Jerusalem they just never got it.

If Bush and McCain, Clinton and Madalene Albright, have it their way, (World War 3) will happen very Soon...


Why are USA Troops in Iraq & Aghanistan, Oppose to Attacking Iran ?

Pakistan & India pose a greater Nuclear Threat than any Arab Country, Because No Arab Country has Nuclear WEAPONS, many Countries have the capability to make Nuclear Weapons...

Do these Countries have the Physical Nuclear Weapons ?

No, They Do Not !!

Sorry.


Question: Why has`nt the Bush Administration, Attacked Saudi Arabia & The United Arab Emirates, They`re the Ones Directly Involved in the (911 Plane Attacks) ??


Note: Israel has No chance of being WIPED OUT, they are the Only Middle Eastern Country, with Nuclear Weapons (150)

He!! even if Israel has only 75-50-25 Nuclear Bombs, it would be ENOUGH, to Obliterarte Many Nations.


Note: So America & Israel are in No Imminent Nuclear Danger !!


If this Farce Continues, China & Russia are going to get INVOLVED and (World War 3) will Offcially begin !!

Pepperwood2,
What you want to say is that one of Hillary''s many "special interests" rely on some influencial people who happen to be jewish.
The truth remains that she needs to find the millions of dollars she''s spending in her campaign with her own "loan" money.
She will look for it in many places where "Loaded" appear to be their middle name. Many people in NY with that kind of money happens to be jewish.
But she has wayyyyy more "friends of interests" who are not jewish and are backing her all the way.

-- With 99 percent of the precincts reporting, the Puerto Rico vote count showed Clinton with 261,916 votes, or 68 percent, to Obama''s 120,929, or 32 percent. --


Another Obama blowout loss. The rules committee decided yesterday, that
Florida counts as voted. Hillary is now AHEAD by 36,000 total votes, and
that EXCLUDES HER WIN IN MICHIGAN.

She will need close finishes Tuesday, then she can rightfully claim more total
votes.

QUIT?!! Hardly.

Let''s see Obama fight her off in the summer media war, with fewer votes
and losing by 10 points to McSame, while Hillary leads McSame. Supers
can switch at any time, and by August - MAY HAVE TO. Obama is a
race-unity hypocrite and Americans (not primary Democrats), know it.

Remember where you read it. If Obama finishes with fewer votes, he

LOL. Obama has no standing on "the economy". That is a big part of
the problem with him as the nominee. McSame is already schooling
him on Iraq - already defined him last week as an imbecile on it -
and *** does Obama know about "the economy"?

By the time of the Democratic Convention in late August - where
Supers can vote any way they want - Obama will be trailing
McSame by 12 points. He has a thin coalition of Af/Am''s, kids

It doesn''t matter how the media tries to spin it, Barack Hussein Obama will NOT be the people''s choice.... and that isn''t because of his colour, no sir... it is because of his "incompetence". How dare he, a Junior Senator even think about the US Presidency without gaining experience serving those first who put him in the senate. He promised them a full term in office, and look what he is doing? Nothing of the sort. Barack Hussein Obama spent his 2 short years as Junior Senator preparing for the primaries. The people have already been let down by him in Chicago.

------------------------------------------------------------
Now, it has become the ISM%u2019s time to deconstruct religious dogma of Israel belonging to the Jews as is preached in US churches and to increase the number of black churches in America that are working in %u201Csolidarity%u201D with this program. Jeremiah Wright%u2019s church is one of them. Even though the national synod of the United Church for Christ rescinded a boycott and divestment plan against Israel, a wing of the UCC church keeps trying to get it reinstated. That wing includes Reverend Wright%u2019s Trinity UCC Church in Chicago. Few people know also, that there are many Muslim members of Reverend Wright%u2019s %u201CChristian%u201D church, a close ally of Sabeel.

Led by a Palestinian Christian pastor named Naim Ateek, Sabeel%u2019s purpose is as part of the ISM to especially convince churches in America that the diminishing Christian population in the West Bank, particularly Bethlehem, is not due to persecution by the Muslim majority in the Palestinian Authority against Christians caused Christian flight, but because of Israel%u2019s Jews and %u201Cthe occupation.%u201D

You have to ask yourself a few questions: and if you answer ''''''''yes'''''''' to the first you are lying:
Is Obama honorable?
If he thought the Church he went to for 20 years was wrong why didn''''t he leave it sooner?
Why hasn''''t he been to Iraq in 2 years?
Why does feel it is right to meet with terrorist leaders unconditionally?
Why would he even consider Clinton for VP after disagreeing with most of her poplicies?
Why are you still thinking a Democrat is more credible than a Republican?
The only CHANGE that is possible with what we have to choose from is choosing MCCAIN. Time to face reality.

Since the population of Jews in the U.S. is about 1%, how is what they think signifigant? This is the U.S. and Israel is not and never will be part of the U.S.

What''s going to be in it for Hillary & I when she concedes. How about fixing it so me Bill Clinton will take over for Hill as your New York Senator. I can be the Rwandan Ambassitor in the new cabinet or in charge hiring new interns at the White House. I have 35 years experience . How about contributions for my Library? Wow what opportunies we now have. Our fortune will now grow by leaps & bounds. We''ve only just begun.

Hillary & Bill are certainly coming out of this big winners. 110,000,000 million dollar fortune that we''''ve accumulated by contributions, without having to use any of our real money. Then whine about it until the DNC & Obama will be black mailed into paying us off. In case we decide to support Obama. Pretty Slick Scheme.

All, at the time, by manipulating & exploiting the Po Folk. Saying that all along she is their champion. They couldn''''t wait to fall hook, lies, & sinker to vote for her. Elite & out of control. Another Pretty Slick Trick!

Timing is everything. Don''''t use the concede card too early Hillary. You and Bill will be able bribe & blackmail Obama & the DNC for more the longer we wait right now. CACKLE CACKLE CACKLE

Notice how pollsters promote sexism and ageism through polling techniques. Just another pervasive subliminal way to divide us.

The key demographics that Obama appeals to are the VERY liberal & the african-american wings of the democratic parties. This bodes poorly for party prospects in the general election.

Once more the Democrats are throwing away political victory for meaningless political posturing.
