Unfortunately his glaring personal flaws vastly outweigh his great accomplishments.

Yeah, I don't think I could ever admire somebody that virulently antisemitic, no matter what they did for American industry.

Yes, exactly. Ford may have been a good inventor, but I must vote HP.

Ford had one talent - other than that, he was a human mess of a man, filled with paranoia and prejudices.

Freedom Fighter. He exposed the agenda of the international elites. We could sure use a Henry Ford today instead of all these Madof's, Bronfman's, and Rothschilds.

FF for believing that workers who produce a product should be able to afford to purchase the product, and that this is a good business model. Though certainly HP in terms of his views of Jews/Nazi sympathies.

Yes, but he supported the middle class and was an America Firster. He stood up to the Banking Elites on Wall Street and wrote a book called the International exposing their agenda.

Close, let's consult with the judges... <buzz>.

I'm sorry, that is incorrect.

But you already knew that.

While Henry Ford anti-semitism was clearly deplorable, to my knowledge, he never acted on his flawed ideas. As far as I'm concerned, the good he did for Americans by providing better jobs and transportation outweighs bad personal beliefs he held.

Other than, you know, having that book published. That little detail.

His book didn't kill anyone, even if it had terrible ideas in it. By "act on his beliefs", I meant harm or kill Jews.

That book was a 100% correct(I have read it). look at AIPAC, the CFR, Bilderberg, and who runs Hollywood. It wasn't racist, it was only referring to an internationalist elite not an entire ethnic group.

+1 on $5 minimum wage in 1914. -1 on the anti-semitism, and -1 on the assembly line.

I am sure someone could right a book about radical Muslims and its no big deal. Ford didn't claim all Jews are evil or internationalist(same thing) but there is a very powerful internationalist cabal that has subverted our nation.

What's wrong with the assembly line? Do you prefer horse and buggy? And wasn't his "antisemitism" pretty much in step with the common thought at the time?
