Listener email regarding English as on official language

"Of course the English language should be first and foremost. Everyone comes to America to improve their lives, so to get the taste of milk and honey, ask for it in English. I don't believe that a can of corn is large enough to accommodate all the languages of every nationality living in the United States. So, I believe that if we start that mess, more mess is coming. The Constitution was written in English. Are we going to have to have it re-written in Spanish? Learn the language or stay in ? country until you learn it . This Nation is an English speaking Nation and always has been. It is wonderful to be bi-lingual, but our wars were fought against foreign hostile nations, so that we could remain English speaking,with Religious freedom, and rights that most countries can't even imagine. Speaking, reading and writing in English is and has been some of the basics that we are entitle to by the fact that our fore-Fathers died for."
