Either that logic is flawed, or we American are just the most forgiving nation on the planet. Actually, I think it's a bit of both.

unfortunately, its a testament to how little our citizens know about the past... and how little they care about the future.
German and Japanese cars are some of the best selling cars on the planet... BMW, Benz, VW, Toyota, Mitsubishi... all of these companies supported the Axis powers and they are all some of the most powerful car companies in the world today... in no small part due to the fact that they were aided in reconstruction by the Allied powers and then started selling cars by the boat load to our uninformed and care free masses.
I'm betting on GM to keep the top spot and win next year... and I'll remain loyal to my GM brands for as long as I feel they make the cars that I want... the only Toyota products that I would ever buy have Supra and SC300 written on them... and both of those aren't made anymore, so none of my money would go to the head office... but I might be able to sway whoever is selling the car into buying a GM product to replace it
