From the article: A sign in a New York classroom late last century warned "Learn English. Be American. Otherwise America will become like the old country."

Much my thought when my local paper recently ran an ad for election precinct workers -- bilingual only needed. "Bilingual," in today's jargon meaning, of course, "Spanish/English."

“Bilingual” also means helping Mexicans vote in American elections.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Only American citizens are suppose to show up at the polling places to vote and naturalized citizens must speak read and write ENGLISH to be naturalized...

Why the need for SPANISH speakers at the polls?
