Obama’s Language Mandate: Why It Feels Like Hungarian to Me
el gordo:
“Obama didn´t get the point: there is no “English-only” movement.”
Or we are all missing the point. J. Goldberg argued it was a misdirection game. I agree. He changed the subject on us by bringing up another one that had the word ‘language’ in it… but no logical connection to the first topic.
He gave the example so switching in ‘math’ (instead of second language) to see his point. Example, we don’t need to worry about them learning English, we need to worry about us learning ‘math’. No logical connection. But, not really any different than switching the subject to us learning foreign languages… from the real issue of our concern about immigrants learning English.
