Hispanics

Is there a downside for America to become a bi-lingual nation?

Clinton: English needs to be our common, unifying language. She does not support English as the official language. I agree with her. She made that point well.

Obama: Every student should be learning a second language. I wonder if he speaks one. Aha - NCLB failures comment: So narrowly focused on standardized tests that a lot of other learning has been pushed out.

Break.

So my take so far: They both seem so similar in their points of view, I think Obama is going to win. He's not making mistakes and she's doing fine. But I don't see how she is winning over anyone new.
