Sen. Klobuchar says English should not be US national language

[Likkmee]

Conservatives think that if they make English the official language that the lady in line behind them in the supermarket will not be allowed to speak Spanish

If they were real conservatives, they'd let the lady go first

Sen. Amy Klobuchar has reversed her position on English being the official language of the U.S. The Minnesota Democrat and Democratic presidential hopeful announced that she now holds a “strong position against” the English-language amendment which she voted in favor of back in 2007. (Tweet) “I think that when you look at a state like this state, and a country like ours that is so diverse, you don’t want to have that provision in law because then it would be very difficult to have, say, government documents and other things translated into other languages,” she said at a campaign event in Las Vegas on Friday, according to The Associated Press.

Actually, they would get her pregnant, then leave her at home with a newborn while they go out and rawdog a pornstar.

 

[Godboy]

She is correct.

No, shes a moron and YOU agree with her.

 

[Indeependent]

Klobuchar is pandering to the vast Hispanic influence in Nevada when she reverses her own position on English as the national language.

Nothing unites a nation like a common language. What is she afraid of?

We are already united with a common language. If you want to succeed in this country you need to learn English. Nothing has changed.

And if you don't learn English you don't succeed.
Nice to know you don't want a lot of people to succeed.

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

And if you don't learn English you don't succeed.

Self delusional nonsense. In my city, plenty of Burmese are succeeding without speaking English.

 

[Desperado]

And if you don't learn English you don't succeed.

Self delusional nonsense. In my city, plenty of Burmese are succeeding without speaking English.

And they are certainly not assimilating either

Many immigrants don’t pick up on the language. It has always been that way

We have always had immigrant pockets. Little Italy, Chinatown, Bario, Germantown........they usually did business in their own language and kept their own customs

Democrats and their identity politics. Mac is their king.

Amazing how simple minded the left are. Especially the elitist left wing white women.

And work and don’t ask for handouts.

no, she is a racist demagogue who is pandering to the Racist Latino Nationalist

Then what is Klobuchar blathering on about if what you say is true?
It's obvious the Hispanic political advisors she listens to don't agree with you or Klobuchar wouldn't have stuck her foot in her mouth so soon after making a decent showing in New Hampshire.

Outside of radical unions like the SEIU, that I'm sure are smiling and applauding her statement, I don't see much
national call for her position and she has just thrown a roadblock in her own way after making political ground. Smart!

I think the people who fume when looking at federal forms in dozens of different languages would appreciate what the 2007 version of Amy Klobuchar called for...recognition by the government of English as our one official language in law as well as in practice.

The cost of multilingualism is absurd. Fact Sheets: Costs of Multilingualism
Just one more "blessing" of open borders and lax immigration policies.

The SEIU is extremely racist

Assimilating...how? Be specific.

They own homes, own businesses, respect our laws, love our freedoms.

Sorry, but you're full of shit. All of them are more inline with American values than any Trump cultist.

As do the wingnut WASPS found complaining all over this thread. The difference is that the whiny WASPS think their "customs" are the "correct" ones.

And work and don’t ask for handouts.

Unlike most of the people who take handouts, who are Whiteys.

Wrong.

She’s actually demonstrated how qualified she is to be president – in this case her understanding of the Constitution and its case law.

The courts have consistently invalidated measures seeking to make English the ‘official’ language.

And that she’s not a frightened, ignorant, hateful bigot like most on the right further illustrates how qualified she is.
