Like I said, I'm not a political person, but this put into words my feelings on the topic. Living in Orlando, I am in a Spanish speaking community, and every day I see cars with the flags of Puerto Rico, Cuba, and Peru. If I were to go to France and refuse to learn French, and fly the American flag as a French-American, that wouldn't be permitted, and I would be made to feel unwelcome, but we as a country make accommodations to those that don't want to learn English, and fly the flags of their native countries. Why?
