Maybe it would help if we followed Webster's lead and called it 'The American Language'. We don't, after all, speak the Queen's English (look up the English definition of Trillion for example).

Whoever thinks that immigrants from south of the border are learning English in droves, needs their head examined.

I have worked with painters, carpenters and laborers who have been in this country for years, they are good guys and hard working but they don't even try to learn English. We have to learn Spanish to communicate, it's ridiculous. We need a translator on some jobs.
