Would issues like Israel and abortion influenced by the Jewish and by Catholic sector of the Congress and the lobbyists, possibly?
The fact that the sizable number of the Representatives are Catholic -- the US Vice President Joe Biden is Catholic, does not necessarily mean that he is not pro-choice, nor that the fact would have helped in the making of the Presidential order to ban federal funding for abortion. Indeed, the Vice President is pro-choice, according to NARAL rating.
The fact that the sizable number of the senators are Jewish, and the President's adviser Axelrod is Jewish, does not necessarily have increased the amount of the military aids to Israel. Indeed, the sources say the US would withhold veto when the East Jerusalem settlement issue comes to UN.
The President of France Sarkozy is to meet with President Obama, after his meeting with the Secretary General of the United Nations. President Obama is reportedly popular in France, while President Sarkozy is struggling with the polls. The changes that he brought to the nation was drastic and the people with vested interests are revolting. The reform to early pension systems that start as early as in 50's, stricter controls over demonstrations burning cars on the streets, the changes made to Paris universities that are dominated by riches, longer work hours even in Saturdays and Sundays, the changes made to public institutions that led to the mass protests by the museums employees, etc.
