No-one with secondary alliances should be able to hold office.
I only used Jews as an example .... because they have a Jewish state.

Finally!
I don't agree with America adopting Israel or any country as it's own with out tremendously benefiting us. Still though, we're bailing out Greece, bailing out Israel, bailing out Haiti. 1 in 10 of us still can't find a job. Taxes are through the roof. Something's gotta give.
There comes a point where I believe the idea called "the consent of the governed" will come into play, and people just won't give in anymore. I don't see it happening, but you wonder why Americans are so pissed off, we're being controlled by the government and suppressed through taxation and second amendment laws.

Evangelicals and Jehovah's witnesses think that the world is ending soon, how can they be trusted with public office?
But no, my initial post treated your comments as though you were saying jews were "an example". You then said that this was incorrect and you assigned jews the quality of unique untrustworthiness based on their religion.
STFU. It has nothing to do with "being Jewish". It has to do with Israel being the only democracy in that area.
