English Should Be Official

A new Rasmussen Reports national poll found that 83% of those responding believe English should be the nation's official language. Only 10% disagree. Rasmussen writes:

Thirty-one states have made English their official language, and five more are hoping to join the club this year. The U.S. government has yet to take that step, even though Americans still strongly believe English should be the nation's officially recognized language. Most also agree overwhelmingly that it’s important to know the language to get ahead in today's world.

COTTonLINE completely agrees with the majority of Americans on this issue. Having a common language enables the U.S. to accomplish easily many things with which the EU with twenty or more languages struggles.
