Barack Obama: "You Need To Make Sure Your Child Can Speak Spanish"

Barack Obama said the following today: "I agree that immigrants should learn English...but, understand this, instead of worrying about whether immigrants can learn English, they'll learn English, you need to make sure your child can speak Spanish." Obviously Obama does not believe in the motto "E Pluribus Unum" or "Out of many, One." The point is not whether people should be multilingual. Of course it is a great skill to have more than one language at your disposal, but that has nothing to do with government policy. People should learn to read music or play an instrument as well, but not everyone does and it is not necessary. Learning Spanish should not be a necessity in America. All countries need a common language in order to preserve unity. But Barack opposed making English the national language even though he is apparently the candidate of "unity." The language of our country has always been English. To believe that it is just as important that Americans learn Spanish is ludicrous. Immigrants and their children are the ones who need to adapt to the common language of the nation they have immigrated to. Americans should not have to adapt to the language of immigrants. Furthermore, Barack claims we "need" to make our kids speak Spanish but then goes on to "it’s embarrassing when Europeans come over here, they all speak English, they speak French, they speak German. And then we go over to Europe and all we can say is merci beaucoup." So is it Spanish we need to learn or maybe French or German so that Obama is not embarrassed by Americans? Being opposed to English as a national language is opposition to the unity of this country. It is the cult of multiculturalism taken to the extreme. Obama is no doubt part of that cult, but that he would claim that Americans need to learn Spanish and put that on the same level as immigrants learning English is quite stupid and beyond ridiculous.

Here is a little song on the subject that is quite apropos:
