Actually we are a country that has no official language. No language is mentioned in the Constitution, nor is there a federal law to that effect.
As to the illegal aliens comment, not all 50 million Hispanics have relatives who are illegal. Plenty of Hispanics on the West Coast and Midwest have been here for generations.
If you bother to quote my entire post, I said relatives AND friends. That covers a lot of ground if you bothered to include the other part.
Actually we're not. Until Puerto Rico becomes a state, we're not a bilingual country. This is clearly an effort to pander to voting relatives and friends of illegal aliens, nothing more.
Because the Democrats are a bunch of racists and they long for the US to become the northern extension of Mexico
The USA isn't bilingual, or any-lingual for that matter. Is your push for nationalization of English as language (states can't be free to decide that, right?) solely from your hatred of "Mexicans"?

I agree , there has been legislation a few times to make puerto rico an english speaking country.
Americas language is english. America was originally an english colony, not bilingual colony

Its more illegals here than legal hispanics.
Its sort of disrespectful, to know english and speak another language especially campaigning.

If they've been here for generations they should speak English. So why would there be a need for Spanish ads?
So you are saying there are 25 million illegal Hispanics??
There's about 12 million illegals and 75% are estimated to be Hispanic, so that's 8 million.
Also, President Bush gave several speeches in Spanish.
Doesnt change the fact english is our langiage, just because a whole groupfrom the south wants to leech off american wealth and not culturally become american make us bilingual. The majority of americans through heritage and other legal immigrants assimilated, learned the languagd amd never demanded the country change for the, tp be bilingual,because they are either too snoby, lazy, hostile, or invading to learn the language
