US Jewish leaders welcome haredi participation

hmmm. Are the haredim ready for organized Jewish life? Are they willing to have their views confrom to the consensus of a community that they are largely at odds with? Rabbi Bloom's idea that the frum will soon be the majority is long off.

Heilman brings some interesting quotes but does not really get inot the heart of the issue here. The Jewish community, unfortunately, has become for now bifurcated into two groups. Those that are hopelessly captive of the Democratic Party and those that are less petrified of the "insidious and evil religious right".
