Maybe you've heard about the socialist candidate running for mayor of New York City. He's an immigrant from a complicated ethnic background, and his opponents accuse him of being unpatriotic, anti-American, a Communist agent and a supporter of overseas terrorist movements. Some have suggested that electing him mayor will make antisemitic bigotry - already far too widespread in America - much worse, and is likely to fuel a vicious, jingoistic right-wing backlash.
