I wonder if any US Presidential candidate could win while taking a hard line with Israel. The Jewish/Israeli lobby and influence in the US is very strong. However, I think that US popular opinion is that the US does too much for Israel. It seems that the Dems are trying to move in that direction, with their attempt to drop Jerusalem as the capital of Israel from their platform. IMO it's a stance that is only going to grow in support in the US. The upcoming generation has a different impression of Mideast politics.
