Jewish Champions of First Amendment or something

If we are going to say that you are not a champion of the First Amendment if you support a repressive foreign regime, that rules out not only all Communists during the Cold War, but also the entire Right and also the Cold War liberals in the center.  The only ones eligible would be the democratic Left, which I suppose makes sense.

Actually, Right and Center during the Cold War should probably be considered less eligible than Communists, under this criterion, because they had government power in America and they used it to keep foreign repressive regimes in power.
