The Forward reports that "Representatives for seven of the nine Democratic presidential candidates squared off this week on issues of importance to the Jewish community, ranging from health care and abortion to Israel and the war on terrorism." According to the article, "Seeking to undo missteps early in the campaign by his candidate Howard Dean, Matt Dorf, reaffirmed his candidate's commitment to a secure Israel but said he could not support the current plans for the security fence put forward by the Israeli government." Representative Dennis Kucinich’s representative "sought to distance his candidate from the pack. ‘Some people think that being a good Jew means you have to support Ariel Sharon and his policies. I don't agree with that,’ said Bob Ginsburg. ‘You may think that we should build walls and more settlements and, if you feel that way, then you should not support Kucinich.’"
