1. Obama was just lecturing the Detroit automakers about fuel economy

So why isn't he driving a hybrid?

Kudos to all the Democrats, though, for driving American. I didn't see one foreign car on their list.

[The Count]

3. The GOP list has plenty of foreign.

[LisaM]

4. Sorry, you are correct on that

I meant the Democratic candidates, obviously. I'll edit.

9. how do you figure? btw, which 'american' cars are really

made in mexico or canada?

[Freddie Stubbs]

11. And which 'foreign' cars are really

built in the USA? You can't always tell just by the brand anymore.

[ellenfl]

16. exactly. eom

[Colobo]

to drive him in a hybrid vehicle.

[The Count]

2. It's like a big Ford commercial! I kinda liked Rudy's answer on this one

[SaveElmer]

5. Well as a Wrangler owner myself...

I have to say Richardson has solidified his position as my second choice!!!

[jodini]

7. Kucinich...

Ford Focus? WTF??? Kudos to him for being unpretentious though.

[DeepModem Mom]

13. Right-o, jodini -- welcome to DU!!!

15. I drive a focus

first it is a nice car, second it rides big. I can easily see why someone driving from DC to Cleveland on a semi regular basis would own one.

[jodini]

17. corolla

No offense...I drive a corolla so I'm not exactly sportin' a flashy car, either. Hi, DeepModemMom! Thanks for the shout-out!

[SheilaT]

8. I guess I'll never be able to be president,

since I drive a Honda. In fact, I've never owned an American car.

[LisaM]

[Adelante]
