I really wonder how many people, besides me, won't be going to a Ford dealership for any more new cars.
Ok, go to the Chevy lot and buy yourself a Tahoe built in Guadalajara, Mexico. Or, a Camaro with a Chinese engine. Or, buy a Dodge and send your American money to Italy or, God forbid, the UAW (Fiat and the union basically own Chrysler jointly). Better yet, buy a Nissan or Kia or Toyota or Honda. Even though the car may be built in America, they're still foreign companies, right?
Go ahead and do that because you don't like Ford selling AMERICAN made products, built mostly by AMERICAN workers in AMERICAN plants using predominantly AMERICAN parts, but advertising in Spanish and call it...what? Patriotism?
Question: What would it hurt if Spanish became the dominant language in America?
Question: Would Mexicans in Mexico like English to become the dominant language in Mexico? How about China? Would they like German to become the dominant language of China? This unnatural langauge transformation would only happen with the continued illegal immigration from Mexico and other Latino countries. Are you ok with that?

WHY?
I don't believe the advertising no matter what language it's in.
i.e., A FORD salesman telling me a FORD's a good car doesn't mean much to me. Now if a Chevy salesman tells me a FORD's a good car............................................... ...............................
You're going off track here. This thread is about Spanish language ads, not Obama. YOU may see a connection, but I don't.
Was that last EO not aimed at making all those illegals superior to the legals from the same countries? Yep, I think you could see some involvement if you opened your eyes.

I don't care what they think.
If you're going to respond, at least have the decency to actually answer the question.
If I were operating a business on the border, I would sure as hell learn to speak spanish. A paying customer is a paying customer. Not to mention the fact that there are a whole lot of attractive women who only speak spanish...just saying.
I agree, if that is your majority customer base, but it's not mine so I have no reason. I don't use a cleanup crew, etc. All of the taco shops speak English so there again, doesn't affect me a bit.
It would have made slightly more sense with English caption.
