I was asked recently if I could support a candidate who shared my religion. As a Jewish person, could I carte blanc support my California Senators Diane Feinstein or Barbara Boxer, both of whom are Jewish? No delay of thought is necessary. I could no more support either simply because we share the same religion than I could support any inherently wrong decision I was about to make. Feinstein and Boxer’s opinions and mine are polar opposite on most if not all issues.
