mexican consulates in cities around our country are hosting " fast track " training for american citizenship , for one specific reason , to vote against trump . they need to tend to their own problems , which they have plenty of !
 
None of them, including Israel, imo. I'm all in for support of Israel but they should stay out of our elections.

Hell yes they should, we ALLOW every bit of the lawless and corruption we see in WDC. 99% of those SOB's will be re-elected in November.
 
Supporting Israel doesn't mean we should be subservient to them. It doesn't mean we should send our sons and daughters to fight and die in wars for them. It doesn't mean we should support everything they do. Hell, I don't even support everything my family members do. I'm also not sure it means American taxpayers should be on the hook for 3 billion dollars a year in aid. Now they want 6 billion a year.

To answer the op's question, no they shouldn't.

No other foreign country has remotely the influence on our government that Israel and their supporters do. Personally I'd like iron rules prohibiting active attempts at influencing our elections by any foreign entity or those who lobby for them.

I agree with u but we shouldn't try to influence their elections either like Obama did when Netanyahu was running.

Agreed! We should be trying to interfere in any country. Our constant nation building and interfering in other countries needs to stop. All we're doing is wasting money and making those places worse. I'm also not sure why we need 600 military bases around the world.

As I recall it was Yahoo that came to speak to Our Congress in a clear show of partisan support for The Republicans during the last Israeli election season.

We need to stop twisting arms to keep American troops on foreign soil. Not even Russia projects it's military into other nations anywhere close to what we do.
We need to close bases and use carrier forces in international waters to maintain a practical ability to respond to crisis.
