American politics is shifting. For decades, no serious candidate would touch AIPAC or question Israel's grip on Washington — now they're saying it out loud, and voters are rewarding them for it. James Fishback, running for Florida Governor, is one of the clearest examples. Asked what makes him different from every other politician, he answered in his own words:

• "I don't take AIPAC money, number one. I don't kiss walls, number two. And number three, I'm not a politician. I'm a business owner. I'm a business guy."
• "Unlike Byron Donalds, who was lazy, sat in Congress for six years. He couldn't tell you what he did in six years, except make millions of dollars trading stocks like Nancy Pelosi did."
• "And I'm sorry, Byron Donalds is not smart enough to trade stocks. He's not the Warren Buffett. He stole that information like too many politicians do."
• "I'm fighting to do three things. I'm fighting to get Israeli influence out of our politics, number one."
• "Number two, I'm fighting for America first. American jobs, for Americans. American homes, for Americans. American soil, for Americans."
• "And number three, I'm fighting so people can tell the truth again. We have too many people who will say things around the dinner table, but won't say those things in public."
• "A real test of a good, well-functioning nation is: are you willing, are you able to say the same things in public that you hold dear in private? And we're going to fight to revive that free speech in our country."

Outlook: A few years ago, this would have ended a campaign. Today it's a platform — and that tells you where the country is headed.
