No offense, but I really hope you are young and that's the reason you are this naive. The next president is going to be either a democrat or a republican. Denying that reality so you can feel better about yourself is doing the people of Gaza no favors. You have no power of the situation and especially if you are in a swing state, the only thing you can do to help them is to keep the republicans out of the white house.

I actually understand your thought process, I used to be the same way. I wish third parties were viable too and I wish we had better options, but right now, the best chance you personally can give Gaza is voting Democrat.

What does that do for Gaza?

Well as it stands, the average American can't do much at all. But the republicans absolutely love Israel and Israel is going to get even more support from the US if the republicans control our government.

How could they get even more than they already are?
