The President needs to stop kissing the butts of illegals and Vicente Fox and start listening to the people who elected him!

Having two languages in a country is a recipe for division, or do we want to follow the example of Belgium? I bet if you opened a business which stated we will deal exclusively in English, customers would flock to it (no more Numero Dos para Espanol etc). What's the matter with English being the official language?

OTOH, if English is NOT the official langauge, why is Spanish the other option? Why not Vietnamese? Or Chinese? Or Gaelic or Italian?
