Many others were taken in by Hitler; Charles Lindbergh and T.J. Watson, Sr. come to mind.
Reprehensible as Henry Ford's personal views may have been, he was not a Nazi.
Back on topic, now.

so the anti-semitic publications, the substantial financial support for the nazi party and the medal he received from them (the highest available to a foreigner) are all to be ignored then.Many others were taken in by Hitler; Charles Lindbergh and T.J. Watson, Sr. come to mind.

Much as our stateside Democrats bought into the idea of Saddam's WMD.
I see your point.

Yeah, the one put forward by your Republican Government.Ah, I see.

Bottom Line, Henry Ford, the great American Industrialist published anti-semitic writings and was a a substantial supporter (probably the biggest overseas one) of the rise of the nazi party. For which they decorated him.
Charles Lindbergh, the great American Hero rallied people to support the nazi party and is thought by many to have recruited many others to their "cause".
No wonder you didn't join in with WWII, you were too feckin embarrased.
Didn't Ford supply vehicles to the nazi's
http://www.corpwatch.org/article.php?id=4368Ford was also active in Nazi Germany's prewar preparations. In 1938, for instance, it opened a truck assembly plant in Berlin whose "real purpose," according to U.S. Army Intelligence, was producing "troop transport-type" vehicles for the Wehrmacht. That year Ford's chief executive received the Nazi German Eagle (first class)....
The outbreak of war in September 1939 resulted inevitably in the full conversion by GM and Ford of their Axis plants to the production of military aircraft and trucks.... On the ground, GM and Ford subsidiaries built nearly 90 percent of the armored "mule" 3-ton half-trucks and more than 70 percent of the Reich's medium and heavy-duty trucks. These vehicles, according to American intelligence reports, served as "the backbone of the German Army transportation system."....
After the cessation of hostilities, GM and Ford demanded reparations from the U.S. Government for wartime damages sustained by their Axis facilities as a result of Allied bombing... Ford received a little less than $1 million, primarily as a result of damages sustained by its military truck complex at Cologne...

You are right on all counts; he was, in fact, so enthusiastic about the Nazi cause he discomfited Herr Hitler mightily by flooding the German roadways with his automobiles.
This spurred Hitler to enlist F. Porsche to develop his Volkswagon.
Still doesn't make him a Nazi, sorry.
Hitler himself was a poor excuse for a Nazi, being Jewish and all-he was Schickelgruber/Salemon specie, as I recall.
