Fouts, the mayor of Warren, Mich., Detroit's largest suburb and home to more than 30,000 auto workers and thousands more retirees, says the nation must do some patriotic purchasing to salvage a great industry - and honor its manufacturing tradition.

I want to save the automobile manufacturing companies because I think they are worth saving." (John Tully/Special to The Washington Times)
