iVoteIsrael: Doing good work for all the wrong reasons

Does it really matter who pays the bills to sign voters up to vote? Particularly those that are living in another country? That's stupid thinking. Voting is a right of American citizens and if it's paid for by Republicans, Democrats or Martians it should not matter. A voter will vote based on his own preferences. I have heard no one coercing anyone to vote in any particular way. If that is true, print the proof and reveal your sources. My son is serving in the IDF and will be voting his conscience and in the best interests of the U.S. as well as Israel. As I've said, getting people to vote is a good thing who pays the bills does not matter.

Here is a politically active Jew, putting in his all to excersize his god given right as an American to vote and magnify all Israeli Americans votes...Kov HaKovod...why does Haaretz have this need to somehow manufacture a negative spin...ivoteIsrael registers all voters...lets just support their efforts and be thankful there are people like Pieprz in the streets banging on doors looking out for our interests

The United states of America (not Israel) has decided that US citizens living abroad have the exact same right to vote (thus making them constituents) as any other American. The same right as Bill gates or even Michelle Obama. One vote. And everyone is expected to vote exactly according to his interests. I mean, how realistic is it to expect that an entire group of American voters should vote contrary to their personal interests as US citizens. If you think that idea is bad, and want to change American laws, so that should be your target. The fact that Americans are leveraging the system to their advantage? That's just called being smart. Why do you seem to have a problem with that?

The only voter registration organization I know of that could possible claim to be non-partison is the League of Women Voters, and I don't think they have any representation in Israel.

thank you for your candidness. What is good for israel and america may or may not be the same- we are two different countries.
