You're right but... it's a moot point in two respects. It would take an act
of Congress to do it and their not going to. Secondly within the next twenty
years or so there will be more Spanish speakers, than English.

The US is already the largest Spanish speaking country in the world.

But....

If you speak some hindi, or Arabic, or some African tribal dialect, don't
expect me to learn your language to communicate. And don't get mad when I
ignore you because I can't understand you.

Subject: English in America in trouble?

We all know of the issues surrounding making English the official language
in the U.S. Here is a story by Newt about this subject. What do you all
think?  I feel that English should be required in all public places - work,
stores, theaters, everywhere. I am not saying that you have to give up your
identity from whatever country you are from, just adopt the language of the
country that you chose to live in (very important part here, that they chose
to live here, were not forced) . And let's take it a step further. I am
tired of seeing folks fly the flag from their country OVER the American
flag. I see that at peoples houses, on their cars, etc... If you love the
country you are from so much that you would desecrate our flag by placing
yours over it, then move back.
