Get Rid of Spanish in America

[HappyJoy]

Covfefe????

Although I speak Spanish, I only speak English in this forum. To me, you speak English, or you get no rewsponse.

Isn't covfefe the kings english?

That's hilarious, a nationalist who hates a good portion of his nation.

That part which has gone to hell in a handbasket.

Ok, how about the North East and Florida?

Also, how familiar are you with California anyway? There's quite a few toothless asshats in the far north that put Alabama to shame, are you sure you wan't to ignore them?

Northeast - we could give them to Canada. Florida is OK, except for the climate (too hot)

Spanish was here long before English was. Mexico owned the entire southwest of this country long before the white man showed up. It was the United States that started the American/Mexican war taking their land away from them. "Remember the Alamo."

You'll find that many people in the southwest are bilengual. We're talking Colorado, Nevada, Arizona, Texas, New Mexico and half of California. If you go to Mexico today, you'll find that Mexicans are learning English much faster than Americans are learning Spanish. It's because of the tourism in Mexico that cater to Americans and Canadians.

It's good to have many different languages in this country. If you remember correctly after 9/11 we were begging people to come forward that could speak Farsi.

Actually, Mexico started the Mexican-American War by inviting Americans into Texas to help them deal with the ferocious Comanches. Afterwards, they decided they didn't like the Americans either, and tried to kick them out - after they had already established themselves there.

And NO, it is NOT good to have many different languages in a country.m If you do, you don't have a country. You have a mess.

Mexicans "invited" Americans in--and then gave them the "land"-- You need to read a history book. The fact is that American settlers were getting attacked by Apaches that were crossing the border to attack--and we asked the Mexican government to enter their space to help the Mexicans fight them off (as they were being attacked by Apaches too)--and then we took their land. They didn't give it to us, we fought a war over it that WE started. They were here long before the white man showed up.

The entire southwest of this country is deeply rooted in Mexican culture and history and you're not going to "eliminate" the Spanish language from that culture. In fact, my second language is Spanish. This is why all the Bush's can speak Spanish--they're from TEXAS.

Anyone living in Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Nevada & California are very accustomed to hearing Spanish--and don't pee their pants over it.

This should give you a pretty good idea as to where the WALL should be built--LOL

Mexico started the Mexican American war, and we purchased that land from Mexico at the end of that war. Cash on the barrelhead. Do not try to distort history for the sake of an agenda.

Nor should you--there was no "cash on the barrel head"...rather we forced the transfer via war..and we forced Mexico to cede all the the territories south of the Rio Grande line via the Treaty of Guadalupe.

Yes...the treaty had a clause where we 'paid' Mexico 15 million dollars--but that was just an illusion. That 'payment was just applied against the perceived Mexican war debt...thus no cash traded hands at all. It was just a sop to Mexican pride, nothing more.

Mexican Cession - Wikipedia

"The U.S. Senate approved the treaty, rejecting amendments from both Jefferson Davis to also annex most of northeastern Mexico and Daniel Webster not to take even Alta California and Santa Fe de Nuevo Mexico.[1] The United States also paid $15,000,000 ($482 million in 2016 dollars) for the land, and agreed to assume $3.25 million in debts to US citizens.[2] While technically the territory was purchased by the United States, the $15 million payment was simply credited against Mexico's debt to the U.S. at that time."

"The U.S. Senate approved the treaty, rejecting amendments from both Jefferson Davis to also annex most of northeastern Mexico and Daniel Webster not to take even Alta California and Santa Fe de Nuevo Mexico.[1] The United States also paid $15,000,000 ($482 million in 2016 dollars) for the land, and agreed to assume $3.25 million in debts to US citizens.[2] While technically the territory was purchased by the United States, the $15 million payment was simply credited against Mexico's debt to the U.S. at that time."

In 1845, newly-elected U.S. President James K. Polk made a proposition to the Mexican government to purchase the disputed lands between the Nueces River and the Rio Grande river further south. When that offer was rejected, President Polk moved U.S. troops commanded by Major General Zachary Taylor further south into the disputed territory. Mexican forces attacked an American Army outpost ("Thornton Affair") in the occupied territory, killing 12 U.S. soldiers and capturing 52. These same Mexican troops later laid siege to an American fort along the Rio Grande.[6] Polk cited this attack as an invasion of U.S. territory, and requested that the Congress declare war.

U.S. forces quickly occupied the capital town of Santa Fe de Nuevo México along the upper Rio Grande and the Pacific coast territory province of Alta California (Upper California), and then invaded to the south into parts of central Mexico (modern-day northeastern Mexico and northwest Mexico); meanwhile, the Pacific Squadron of the United States Navy conducted a blockade, and took control of several garrisons on the Pacific Oceanwestern coast farther south in lower Baja California Territory. The U.S. Army, under the command of Major General Winfield Scott, after several fierce battles of stiff resistance from the Mexican Army outside of the capital, Mexico City, eventually captured the city, having marched west from the port of Veracruz, where the Americans staged their first amphibious landing on the Gulf of Mexico coast.

The 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, forced onto the remnant Mexican government, ended the war and specified its major consequence, the Mexican Cession of the northern territories of Alta California and Santa Fe de Nuevo México to the United States. The U.S. agreed to pay $15 million compensation for the physical damage of the war. In addition, the United States assumed $3.25 million of debt already owed earlier by the Mexican government to U.S. citizens. Mexico acknowledged the loss of their province, later Republic of Texas (and now State of Texas), and thereafter cited and acknowledged the Rio Grande as its future northern national border with the United States. Mexico had lost over one-third of its original territory from its 1821 independence.

The territorial expansion of the United States toward the Pacific coast had been the goal of Polk.

We started the war because Mexico didn't want to sell their land to us.

In other words we paid for the territory that Mexico sold to us. They should not have been so stupid as to start a war they could not win and play right into what President Polk had been hoping for. Once they started the war, they only have themselves to blame for losing it and then finding themselves in a very poor negotiating position when they did in fact sell the territory to the United States. It is what it is.

The USA is an English-speaking country. It has been that for over 200 years. In order for America to preserve its identity as a NATION, it must have a (ie. ONE) distinctive language and culture.

Currently, there are a few Spanish TV stations, and the AM radio dial is flooded with them. Spanish is also ubiquitous in telephone recordings, voting ballots, and even on billboards. It's time for the US government to put a stop to this madness.

There have been non-English speaking immigrants here in America, for as long as the USA has existed. They have always adapted and quickly learned English. My mother's family arrived here from Denmark, in 1929. There were no radio shows in Danish for them. My paternal grandparents came here from Central America in the 1880's. They had no Spanish signs, or anything like that. They all learned English, quickly.

The only reason there is so much Spanish in America now, is because this helps Democrats to import more immigrants to vote Democrat. Now we have people who have been here for 20 years, and can't speak a word of English. Get rid of all the Spanish. Get it out, and keep it out.

Let’s make America great again, by making America a true NATION again (instead of the mish-mash it has become).

NATION - a stable, historically developed community of people, with a territory, system of economics, and a DISTINCTIVE LANGUAGE & CULTURE. (Webster's New World College Dictionary, 4th ed.)
