Mark ! 43 percent,is still a lot,considering the damage Che Guevara is causing the USA and the free world.

I have no doubt LAWRENCE made that limerick up all by himself given the article. Have you written anything creative recently? Lawrence is a good guy and there's a 50/50 chance he's Ashkenazi to boot C'est tout

They are from Asia and Latin America. This research is biased. If the high proportion of American elite is Ashkenazim, its because they are better connected and have a good support network, not because they intellectually superior.

I wonder what is the average IQ of the Asim? The mind boggles at that thought. Sorry for the bragging guys : )

ABRAHAM YITZHAQ YAACOV MOSES JOSHUA SHULCHAN ARUCH LUZZATTO MAIMONIDES and so much more are sephardeem, The torah world follows sephardeem...so .. THE SEPHARDEEM LEADERS WON THE CONTEST.... BUT LEAVE IT TO ISRAEL TO SEPARATE JUDAISIM. In USA we are called JEWS TORAH JEWS One Nation One GD Thanks jewswithviews.com

Those "yeshivot" did'nt make their students smart , they only received some knowledge about "religion" . Being smart or having knowledge are two very different things . What we Jews have is that we always promoted study , religious in the dark ages , secular in the modern times . And this latest was our UNIQUE contribution to Humanity .

Ya think, that this is sort of like white people saying that other races are inferior????? What are you telling your kids to believe!

you understand the value of OUR jewish heritage.I am taking a break ,for some time.Keep well,Charles.

The Jews in Israel are approximately 50% of Askenazi and 50% of Sephardi/Mizrahi descent. Thankfully the diaspora concepts "ashkenazi" and "sephardi" mean increasingly little to many young Israelis that have family ties to both groups like for example Deputy Foreign Minister Danny Ayalon whose father was a Jewish refugee from Algeria and mother a Jewish refugee from Poland. Let's drop the silly galut vocabulary and be happy that the largest Jewish population today is in the ancestral Jewish homeland Israel.

Jews represent 2.2% of the population and you are blaming them for not taking control of the US government? You don't think that with their intellect that they try? It isn't the easiest task to get elected President when your race represents 2.2% of the population. Hopefully, one day they will.

I mean really.

This is racist.

we were led into the modern world by 3 individuals: Marx Freud & Einstein. i rest my case.

I've heard all my life that I had a "yiddische kop" which is nice, but have they ever done studies about Jewish neuroticism? Because we may rank high in other indices as well, judging by me and my extended family.

I love being Ashkenazi. My family grew up poor. We worked hard and by the grace of God I was able to be successful in life and still and very blessed does it have something to do with intelligence? I guess maybe, but I'd like to give credit to God and to my dear Mom who told me that if I worked hard and did well in school everything else would come later. For those who hate us Jews I guess my question for you is maybe you shouldn't use any of our medical advancements or medications that help to prolong life LOL I guess that's more of a statement LOL sarcasm definitely is genetic haha!

Psychological or physiological simularities !
