I think the more languages the better. It reflects our diversity and tolerance of other cultures.

It just doesn't feel like America if McDonalds has bilingual peel-off game stickers. Plus, they have gone to far if they start asking you if you want Freedom Fries or Liberty Cabbage with your Big Mac.

Where in the World Is Spanish Spoken? Source: Ethnologue The places listed below have Spanish-speaking populations greater than 100,000. Unless otherwise noted, all counts are 1995 estimates. Mexico 86,211,000 Colombia 34,000,000 Argentina 33,000,000 Spain* 28,173,600 United States** 22,400,000 Venezuela 21,480,000 Peru 20,000,000 Chile 13,800,000 Cuba 10,000,000 Ecuador 9,500,000 Dominican Republic 6,886,000 El Salvador 5,900,000 Honduras 5,800,000 Guatemala 4,673,000 Nicaragua 4,347,000 Bolivia 3,483,700 Costa Rica 3,300,000 Uruguay 3,000,000 Puerto Rico 2,690,000 Panama 2,100,000 Paraguay 110,000 So I was wrong about numbers. Of course chinese is more spoken....in China. Spanish however is spoken all over the place, including the US.... Plus, commies hate freedom fries. |

| soundtest | It has to be more than 14%. 1.3 billion people (almost all of whom speak Mandarin) is more than 14% of the population. | |

Robo missed the point. And yeah, there are now more hispanics in the country than there are black people. They are the biggest minority in the country. I think I heard in sociology class that there will be more hispanics than white people in the country in something like 50 years. |

| Captain Robo | The obstacle course idea is stupid, as all the mexicans athletic enough to complete one are already in the US. | |

And fuck you, Perfect Suspect. The mexicans without shirts sitting on their car hoods are citizens. Those are the children of illegal immigrents. Or they're Puerto Ricans. Illegal aliens from Mexico live in cardboard shanty towns and work 22 hours a day digging holes and burying them again. |

I say... Our country, Our language If they wanna live here, they'll just have to learn English. They should do that instead of sitting on their cars all day without any shirts on. |

| punkgrrrlie10 | the whole bilingual thing is motivated by expanding your market. You cater to whomever you think are going to be buying your product and if you have a large spanish speaking population it's good business sense to have it in both languages. | |

| Esuohlim | Thanks for pointing out the irony that we all got anyway. | |
