English

What's worse - pandering to xenophobic "nativists" or politicizing non English speakers to gain political favor?

I stand pretty firmly on this one - English should be the official language of the United States. I know, I know, I'm getting in bed with the xenophobes, but the only people that bilingual education and other similar measures that discourage adapting to English speaking ends up hurting are those who don't learn English as a result.

This place is a supposed to be a melting pot.
