Untitled[edit]

Is Strauss Jewish?

Yes--he has said so himself on many occasions, referring to himself as a "Jewish boy from Texas."

copyvio[edit]

The article had a major copyvio from [1], so I've reverted back to the version before that material was added. -Will Beback 20:21, 26 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Total Expansion[edit]

I completely expanded and referenced the article, so I removed the unreferenced tag and the texas political figure stub tag. Sag1738 22:04, 22 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
