Another excellent example of some VERY distorted thinking.
Here are the FACTS:
1) Ford has as many "recommended buys" as Toyota. This not only includes Fusion, but also all the SUV's, the F-150 and F-250 series trucks, the Focus, the Mustang and the Taurus. Ford reliability ratings overall are higher than Toyota and on a par with Honda.
2) Republicans are wealthy. They DO NOT drive domestic cars. My wife's family are fabulously wealthy. All are Republicans, and drive nothing but German cars (Japanese cars are beneath them). They do all have Hummers because Republicans like the wasteful, in-your-face image of the Hummer. No Republican I know drives a domestic, and few drive Japanese either. Virtually all drive Mercedes, BMW or Bentley/Rolls Royce.
3) My wife and I are Democrats, support American jobs, and drive only Ford and GM vehicles.

Also the only good vehicle Ford has made so far (in that it ACTUALLY COMPETES with the Japanese brands) is made in Mexico. I'll take the Camry.
