As a Jewish Democrat, I can say with a high degree of certainty that I would vote for any Democrat currently being discussed as a candidate over any Republican currently being discussed. I have serious problems with Hillary Clinton, but she will probably implement policies closer to my concerns than any of the 17 current Republican candidates.
What is interesting about the current Republican contest for the nomination is how Donald Trump has taken such an enormous lead. Yes, it is very early, and yes, I expected him to be gone by now, but right now, I do not see who, if anyone, is going to stop him from winning the Republican primaries. The only thing I can think that would stop him is a coalition of mainstream Republican mega-donors who fear that his candidacy would do significant, lasting damage to Republican chances for ever attracting significant support from Hispanics. They are a big and growing chunk of the voting-age population, and if one party can capture them into its base, that party will have a significant advantage in presidential elections for the next 20 years. Republican mainstream mega-donors know this and are probably trying to figure out how they can slow down or stop The Donald.
