I agree with Mr. Kim, and not only that but think of this. Most people that take the trouble to actually get green cards and esecially citizenship learn English. They can at least speak enough to understand the first part of an automated phone system.

When we cater to Spanish as a second language we make things much easier for illegal aliens, most of which are Spanish speaking. If we don't want them in America illegally then why are we making it easier for them to be here?

This especially hits home for me living in Florida where we had to actually declare English the official state language since Spanish is spoken so prominently here. I just got back from the Miami area and over half the radio staions down there are in Spanish.

It's so bad down there people get all freaked out in the Miami international airport and just about panic thinking they landed in Cuba by mistake because everyone is speaking Spanish and almost no one is speaking English. Even most of the official notices over the loud speakers are in both English and Spanish, or even just Spanish confusing them even more.

I think this needs to change.
