You are right that AIPAC was not elected. BFD! It does no more nor no less than hundreds of lobbying groups. YOU don't like what it does, hence your antipathy towards it. You can couch your objections in any emotional way you wish, it is still the same garbage. If every single Jew in America joined AIPAC, and left the Democratic Party and President Obama (a wish devoutly longed for), it would be but a blip against them.

"AIPAC consists of self-interested, wealthy and influential supporters of Israel, of all creeds and none (which is why you'll never catch me talking about "the Jewish lobby")." But that is what you mean. NOW has male members, but it is a women's lobby group. Caucasians are members of the NAACP, but it is still a lobby group for 'Colored People". Don't be so mealy-mouthed, Steve..
