Henry Ford (1863-1947) was one of the most famous cars magnate but few know (well, out of historical-uchronical contest, at least) Ford had a strong political involvement. He run as Democratic candidate for Senate in Michigan on a Wilsonian Peace platform and lost. He tried to build a political-economical proposal with Thomas Edison, supporting monetary reform. In 1924 he was considered as a possible compromise candidate for the deadlocked Democratic convention. Lately he moved toward right, showing a strong anti-semitism (but he hated Jews since 1920s at least), pushing against unions and having some appreciations for Nazis and Lindbergh. However he payed blacks as whites, a gesture that was called progressive in his era. His main political vision could maybe be called a sort of Technocracy based on a no-Union, good-businessmen, peace-and-trade and no-Jew idea.
So what Henry Ford emerges as compromise candidate in 1924?
Could he beat the GOP in general election, maybe against a surging Harding?
And how his Presidency could be?
