Of course, if you consider Jesus' apostles the first Christians (cause for Jesus I'm not sure you can really say it counts as he is not supposed to be divine, so can he really have a religion if he is himself part of God?), they were born Jews and just thought they were following a Jewish prophet (historically it also seems that Jesus was actually an assassenean, which was a specific branch of Judaism)

Why are most Jews not Christians?

Jews are not 'Christians' because if they were, they would be known as 'Christians', and not as 'Jews'. To put it in other words: As a 'Jew', the individual is, by definition, a 'Jew' and not a 'Christian'. Were that individual to become a 'Christian', he would then no longer be a 'Jew'.

No. Jesus, while a Jew himself, explicitly taught that his New Gospel did not require one to be a Jew. Thus, to be a follower of Jesus' teaching, one did not have to first be a Jew. In fact, the vast majority of converts to the new Christianity were Gentiles (i.e. non-Jews).
