Henry Ford was, like many geniuses, an extremely complex man. He was in stong contention to run as the Republican candidate for President of the United States. Henry Ford was a Pacifist and spent millions on trying to prevent WW1.
Later on, he also was, like America's national hero - Charles Lindberg, a supporter of the Nazi movement and received one of the Nazi's highest medals. During WW11, he was also one the the biggest industralists to help destroy the Nazis.

So, as in many things, there are often times where events and actions leave the observer perplexed with 'mixed signals'. Henry Ford was one such example. However, when all the dust has settled, his still remains as one of America's great men.
