Since foreigners come here and establish their own communities, the need to become totally part of the English speaking community is not necessary. Not to beat a 'dead horse', but if our African ancestors came here free on their own will, then I am sure we would have more African-language communities.

I wonder if we would be catered to the way Spanish speakers are treated. Every time I call an automated line, I always hear "press one for English, press two for Spanish". The only time I've actually had a third option is when I called someplace in Louisiana for a work-related project and was given French as an option as well. It just seems unfair to provide these services just to one segment of society and not the others. I keep hearing that Spanish speakers will soon become the largest minority group in the country, but what I want to know is are they all LEGAL?
