Henry Ford - Grand Cross of the Germany Eagle (highest civilian Nazi medal)and Ford Motor Company. HF financed American printing of "The Protocols of the Elders of Zion".

Walter Teagle, Pres. Standard Oil provided high octane fuel for Nazi war machine. Largest stockholder, Rockefeller trust.

Tom Watson - IBM met w/ Hitler in 1937 to beef up business w/ the Nazi regime.

Alcoa - part of Aluminum cartel w/ IG Farben (Germany) investigated (1941) for withholding aluminum from US aircraft industry, while Nazi Germany had lots of the stuff.

Joseph Kennedy - disparaged Britain and British Democracy in 1940 while Ambassador to that country. The Communist term 'useful idiot' would seem to describe his actions. [This is an analogy, folks, not saying the elder Kennedy was a Communist or a Fellow Traveler.]

These are some other important Americans who and which had close ties with Nazi Germany. And there are many more who have dirty hands from dealing with Hitler even after his intentions were known. And I'm sure there were probably British folks doing much the same. Perhaps not so much the French.

So is there any reason that Prescott Bush was the only important person mentioned on this thread? Could someone's agenda sort of want to taint a certain President with the "sins" of his grandfather?
