Abstract

The article discusses the implications of Joe Biden's decision to end his reelection bid on Arab American voters, particularly in light of his administration's handling of the Israel-Palestine conflict. Many Arab Americans, historically aligned with the Democratic Party, expressed relief at Biden's exit due to his perceived lack of empathy towards Palestinians amid the ongoing violence in Gaza, which has resulted in significant casualties. With Biden out, attention turns to Vice President Kamala Harris, who is seen as potentially more empathetic and capable of rebuilding trust with the Arab American community, although skepticism remains regarding her commitment to significant policy changes. The article highlights the community's desire for a shift in U.S. policy towards Gaza and the importance of Harris's upcoming actions and statements in shaping their support.
