AND you can't vote, if you can't speak or write in English!!
So all you f*&^ing idiots out there who like to say that ‘English first’ is some evil Conservative plot to interfere with the cultural heritage of naturalized Americans, can p^%$ off!!!!
My grandparents, had to learn English and at least enough to READ so they could VOTE their OWN choice. They did this because their alternative was deportation. No tickie/no laundry!!!!
America had the ‘literacy’ requirement because if immigrants remained illiterate, they would be the prey of unscrupulous politicians or groups who would only exploit them for their vote! SMART IDEA!!!
So all you f*&^ing idiots out there who like to say that English first is some evil Conservative plot to interfere with the cultural heritage of naturalized Americans, can p^%$ off!!!!
