So, should the US have (an) official Language(s)?
Sorry, but it just isn't that simple. There are laws and treaties that prohibit the federal government from establishing an official language, that would be difficult to ammend.

I don't see the advantages of establishing an official language, when most countries in the world don't have one. Every nation has a de facto language, and isn't that enough?
