The Germans did try to influence American public opinion and sentiment before the war. There was some famous people that jumped on the bandwagon like the flyer Charles Lindbergh.
And those people were free to go around and give speeches about how friendly and good the Nazis were. That is until events finally unfolded and Germany declared war on The US. Then those people were not heard from anymore.
Today, we have the Terrorists actively giving not only threats against America, but picking up on the political attacks against the Bush administration from the Democrats.
In this way the enemy has made common cause with the Democrats and this has not disturbed the Democrats one bit. The most disturbing part about this is that back in WW2 those that were supportive of the Nazis were shut-up once blood was being shed on the battle field. But today we have lost thousands in the War against Terror yet the common cause between the Democrats and the Terrorists continue regardless.
It's disgusting and why I will never vote for any Democrat as long as I live.

There was some famous people that jumped on the bandwagon like the flyer Charles Lindbergh.I have heard the theory that Lindbergh had the trust of the Nazis to the point that he was able to gather valuable intelligence about that state of the Luftwaffe for the US Military, and that secretly they had encouraged him to continue to publicly show pro-Nazi sentiments to continue to have Goering's trust. And the fact is that once the war started, Lindy wanted to join the Army Air Corps to fight in the Pacific Theater, but FDR refused. However, he still ended up flying 50 Combat Missions during the war. Lindy may have been wrong about some things before the war, but he gets a bad rap.
