Like the boy crying wolf, in Aesop’s fables, politicians have habitually been preaching, during each major voting cycle, “This is the most important election in history!” meaning this country’s future is at stake, if the votes don’t go their way. Sadly, we have to say, this year’s battle for control of the nation tops all others. If the Democrats, led by Joe Biden’s masters take control, life as we know it will change for the worse. It’s not our assumption, they, themselves openly and boldly tell us so.

Free Medicare, college, housing for all, open borders, looking the other way, as non-citizens vote, re-friending Iran and apologizing to China for Trump’s “abusive behavior.” The morphing of our capitalistic system into the slide to Communism will foster no incentives for anyone outside of the politicians in power. The evidence in Cuba, Venezuela and Soviet Russia was clear. Shoddy goods manufactured by non-motivated workers in state owned and managed companies for whom the work ethic was zero, destroyed the economies.

The inspiration to achieve, to create, to be proud of one’s accomplishments, to rise up the ranks, was smashed. The Russians saying as late as the 1970’s was, “We pretend to work and they pretend to pay us,” will envelope our labor force if the Radical Left wins this next election. As such, we at the Jewish Voice have researched the following candidates and have come up with the slate below of people who would strive and fight to maintain and even better our current way of life. Look them over and show you support by casting your votes for them for the future of all of us. Thanks!

We are endorsing President Donald Trump for re-election. A businessman and real estate entrepreneur from New York City, our nation’s 45th president deserves your vote as he has not only fulfilled his pledge to “Make America Great Again” but has done so in spades. He has revitalized our economy, has stopped illegal immigration through the building of the southern border wall, has instituted historic tax cuts, has created millions of jobs, has moved the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, has fought against anti-Semitism on college campuses, has declared Israeli sovereignty on the Golan Heights and has defended Israel from constant degradation at the United Nations.
