To all who think they don't want to assimilate.
There are some who don't want to assimilate. I'd love to be able to identify them and throw them out. One way to identify them is to force them to learn english and make sure they obey all the laws. This isn't perfect, but it's something. Under Bush's plan, for the FIRST TIME, immigrants who want to be citizens will have to LEARN ENGLISH.
If they don't want to learn english, they will be deported, and they won't be in line for citizenship.
This is a proposal that at least addresses the problem of those who want to be "legal",but never be american.
A lot of the people who only speak spanish are legal immigrants and actual citizens from an era where we didn't require English. If we could project this forward to making all official business be in English we'd be solving a big problem.
