Re: Voting on making English the official US language (Was: "Hm...")

Quote:
The bill reads, "To declare English as the official language of the United States,
the comma at the end of this part of the sentance means this section stands on its own

the rest of the sentance is "and" "and" "and" ... implying a list with the rest of the commas

"To declare English as the official language of the United States," pretty much covers everything that happens in the US that the government may be involved with

education, state government, and trade regulations (labels on boxes).

Goto Canada - look at the signs, and the labels on all products - they are not only French in Quebec and English everywhere else. Its required by law.
