I had an neighbor that worked at the casket co. during the early forties. She would tell story after story of old man Ford parading the children through the isles instilling their arrogance and superiority.

I have a black friend from N.J., that was living in Memphis while her husband was stationed at Millington. She worked in a bank in mid-town. One day John Ford came in, and started making unreasonable demands from her. She balked, he said do you know who I am? she said, do you know who I am. I’m the one that determines what happens in this bank. Take your business elsewhere. My friend had no clue as to what influence that the Ford’s had. John was so taken back that he left without a word.

Thank God, junior did not get elected to the Senate.
It is OK if he is the new darling of Fox. I am in Europe and have not seen Fox in last 2 years. I get all the news I want from FR.
