Jewish Americans throughout the country have joined together in support of Barack Obama for President. He shares our values and our belief in the virtually unlimited potential for Americans and America to do good in the world. Obama’s vision for America is our vision as well.

The American Jewish community has always been civically engaged in improving the country and repairing the world. We have waited many years to be able to vote for a President who truly represents us. Barack Obama’s positions on social justice, civil rights, the environment, immigration, and helping the downtrodden truly exemplify Jewish values. His nuanced position on abortion parallels the traditional Jewish view. Throughout his career, he has been a strong supporter of Israel and has repeatedly and publicly spoken out against anti-semitism. Obama will be a great President for us and for all Americans!

We, the creators of Jews For Obama, are volunteers, neither affiliated with nor paid by the Obama campaign. Each of us has spent many hours examining Obama’s background, experience, qualifications, record, and policy proposals. We deeply believe that Barack Obama is the right leader for America.

Yet there were so many ugly rumors virally spreading through the Jewish community that we created this website with news, analysis, responses to popular smears, and more, that our site grew and grew, and readership of the listserve and weekly newsletter kept growing as well.
