So, should the US have (an) official Language(s)?

Although some people may disagree with me,and I certainly don't mean to offend anyone, I believe we should have an official language. I'm well aware that America is made up of many different cultures and languages, but English is the dominant language, well for right now anyway.I look at it like this, if Blacks as well as other minority groups had to learn it and accept it as the official language, than why can't anyone else? Asking this is just like asking if a large sum of Americans or other nations started to migrate to Mexico or somewhere in South America for instance where Spanish is spoken, and then saying, "You should make English the official language." Sorry if I digressed a bit, but I was thinking about this lately as well...
