>>>>Theodore Roosevelt put it best: "In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against such men because of creed or birthplace origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American and nothing but an American."

Time to stop putting up with all the "racist" accusations when it really isn't about race at all but politics.

Opposition to English as the official language of the United states only demonstrates the need for it to become the official language of the United States.

There is no need to "make" English our national language. English already is our national language.

At the risk of sounding racist, I'd say American English is perhaps the best language available: more flexible phonetically and structurally, it allows for broader thought due its expanding complexity.

Where in the Constitution does it give the federal government the right to create a national language? Is their anyone left who doesn't want to shred the Constitution anymore?
