Nobody owns American culture and thus nobody gets to police it. The beauty of America, in case you missed it, is that it is an amalgamation of a bunch of cultures, ever changing and evolving. The food you eat, the clothes you wear, the words you say, the type of house you live in, the games you play, the sports you watch - all of it - are inclusive, if not 100% borrowed from, of imported cultures. So Ingrahm and those who agree with her don't get to write the test of American culture. There should never be one and floating it as a possibility is doing nothing but recalling the ugliest parts of our racist history.
Tell me again about why having us all speak a common language is doing nothing but recalling the ugliest parts of our racist history?
Do you not see the benefit in having a common language for basic communication, in education, in business, etc.?
You have really been indoctrinated to have all this white guilt about our "racist history". You seem to forget that we outlawed slavery in the US, when it was still a common practice in the rest of the world. You seem to dwell on the worst parts of our history, while discounting the best parts. You may want to do some introspection and figure out why.
