From a Bush speech:

Miami, Florida Friday, Aug. 25, 2000
Western Hemisphere

America has one national creed, but many accents. We are now one of the largest Spanish-speaking nations in the world. We're a major source of Latin music, journalism and culture.

Just go to Miami, or San Antonio, Los Angeles, Chicago or West New York, New Jersey and close your eyes and listen. You could just as easily be in Santo Domingo or Santiago, or San Miguel de Allende.(like that's a good thing)

For years our nation has debated this change -- some have praised it and others have resented it. By nominating me, my party has made a choice to welcome the new America.

I've read that before...personally, I believe that every immigrant to the United States should have to demonstrate fluency in English before being admitted to this country.
