Potential candidates include Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Kamala Harris, Rahm Emanuel, Gavin Newsom, and Josh Shapiro. Attitude toward Israel could become one of the key issues in the primaries. Columnist Shlomo Shamir of the Jerusalem Center for Security and Foreign Policy analyzes the candidates' positions. Newsom, who visited Israel after October 7, has taken a more critical stance, stating a possible reassessment of relations. Shapiro remains a consistent supporter of Israel. Harris and Ocasio-Cortez have repeatedly voiced criticism. The final list of candidates will depend on the 2026 midterm elections.
