" exclusively about wooing the votes of 6 million people "

Surely you aren't suggesting political power is just about the numbers? That one group of 6 million people has the same political sway as any other block of 6 million?

I wasn't comparing any two blocks of 6m people. I was comparing a specific group of 6m to a specific group of 100m. Do you think the 6m American Jews have more political power than the 100m American Evangelical Christians?

I'm unclear on why you think those links answer my question. Do you think AIPAC refuses money from non-Jews? Do you think there aren't Evangelical leaning PACs or other lobbying groups?

What other PAC has a handler for just about each congressman and congresswoman?

I guess I need to repeat myself. I'm unclear on why you think that question answers my questions. Do you think AIPAC refuses money from non-Jews?
