I think I'm going to love gm's new CEO - Page 2 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

While I can agree with what the guy is saying, the goal is to sell cars. And I dont think taking a shot at democrats is going to help that.

I would be VERY careful when the ipo comes out on GM if your thinking of buying. I wouldn't be surprised to see a down turn once it goes public after the first month. Just a little warning........ take it or leave it.

You risk alienating customers on either side when you become outspoken on political affairs. Best to not do it.

I really don't think it is the time or place for the CEO of GM to criticize the government or to "brag" about what political party they are for.

Unfortunately, politics and business go hand in hand. Politicians regularly use business as a political foil to promote their political agendas. See unions, global warming, taxes, etc...

Since everyone seems to only want to discus the political remark (instead of say, his desire for GM to take an 'attack posture' regarding competitors) this thread is closed
