How about those illegals learning English?

I have thought we should stop referring to the language spoken in Mexico as Spanish. We should start saying illegal alien as in (When Maria and Juan go to a Mexican restaurant they always order in Illegal Alien.)

The real language of Mexico is Nahuatl - there are 68 other language/dialects there. When Spain conquered Mexico in the 1570's they introduced Spanish. Today's Mexicans (other than the original indigenous people like ours) are a product of interbreeding with the locals by Spanish Conquistadors.

Before Spain came to Mexica, the capitol being Tenochtitlan, the Mexica stayed on their side of the river Rio Grande. If and when they crossed over they met the Navaho and the Tohono O'odham Nation which kicked their collective butts back over to Mexica. It was Spain and not the Mexica's that invaded the Southwest US therefor Mexica has no claim ....
