I think there are about 6 million in America and 6 million in Israel.  You'll find small numbers all around the world, but I'd say a little over 12 million.

There are Jews in many countries around the world, not just in the US and Israel, with significant numbers especially in Russia and the FSU, Europe and South America. Yes about 6 million in US and about 6 million in Israel but about 18 million total worldwide.

Obama has more executive experience than...

Obama has MORE Executive Experience than Palin or McCain put together....Years as a Community Organizer which is an excutive or head of position. That is the type of executive experience America needs now and fast.... Americans will find more use in Obama executive experience that Palin or McCain. Organizing people who gave up - like most Americans right now....Caring enough to past on High Paying executive positions after being an executive leader (Executive Experience) at Harvard. Obama has the executive experience than Americans can use and find useful in rebuilding America....and not the executive experience that is self serving like McCain. Please forward these comments to Biden for his debate tomorrow with the Bridge to NOWHERE.....Sarah Palin is the Bridge to Nowhere.... John McCain as a Senator for 26+ years is 72 and has had Cancer 4 times - John McCain has NO EXECUTIVE EXPERIENCE because he has never been the head of the House, CEO or President of the Organization like Nancy Pelosi or Bill Clinton. Obama has MORE Executive Experience than Palin or McCain put together....because of his YEARS as a community organizer, CEO of his own company with his written books and Head of the Student Body at Harvard - starting from nothing - which all fits the definition executive experience or head of position and or company. With Joe Biden they are a fantastic team - a well rounded 360 for everything an administration will need for success for America. That is the type of executive experience America needs now and fast.... Americans will find more use in Obama EXECUTIVE EXPERIENCE than Palin or McCain who has NO executive experience. Organizing people who felt hopeless and who most gave up - like most Americans feel right now....Caring enough to past on High Paying executive positions after being an executive leader (Executive Experience) at Harvard. Obama has the executive experience that Americans can use and find useful in rebuilding their families and America....and not the executive experience that is selfish and self serving like McCain or Palin and her existing staff from a previous administration who does most of the work and gives her pointers along the way. BTW Coming from a Jewish Mother: Barack/Barak is Hebrew so is Obama Jewish TOO...Actually he does serve the Jewish Community very well in Chicago - so maybe he is...LOL Welcome to the Family Barack....
