RCO64's video: Why we must make ENGLISH our official language

Oregon Firefighter Supervisors laid off because they can't speak Spanish! English is the language of American success and provides the basis for American cultural unity. As a part of any comprehensive immigration reform, we should renew our commitment to our cultural values by teaching LEGAL immigrants to speak and read the English language, educating them about U.S. citizenship based upon U.S. history and giving them an understanding of the Founding Fathers and the core values of American civilization. We should continue to encourage those who want to become U.S. citizens, but it is important that we grant citizenship to only those individuals who also want to embrace and assimilate into the culture of the United States. We must preserve America's unique civilization. To do this we will insist on respecting the rule of law, meaning 100 percent control of the border and the punishment of employers hiring people here illegally. We will also renew our commitment to AMERICAN values, language and history as the prerequisite for American citizenship... We should not worry about people who want to come to the United States to work hard, pay taxes, obey the law, and become Americans. In fact, we should be delighted to have new Americans join our country because historically they have been the source of enormous talent, energy, and courage. From Alexander Hamilton to Andrew Carnegie to Albert Einstein to Henry Kissinger to Arnold Schwarzenegger, people who wanted to improve their lives, and in the process improve the country, have enriched America. Nor should we be concerned that a substantial number of new Americans are Hispanic. America has a long history of absorbing and blending people of many languages and backgrounds. There have always been non-English newspapers in America and now we have non-English radio and television. I am also not worried that some immigrants come here only to earn money and then go home (Italian immigrants, in particular, did that in the past). What should worry us is the breakdown of will on the part of America to control the borders and to ensure that new immigrants learn to be American. What should worry us is a breakdown of will to protect America's unique civilization! Thank you to Newt Gingrich for the above. It's time to wake up AMERICA!
