The Democratic platform has removed the immigrant must learn English, ruling from their platform. In a move to court the hispanic vote. This has nothing to do with any other consideration but to gain greater hispanic voting. Obvious pandering.
Here's a clue. The object of an election is to win it.

Not much from anyone involved with the current administration. For them it is much easier "dumbing down" the masses than educating them.

I think the word you needed to use was "objective". However, apparently it doesn't matter to you that instead of holding people to higher standards of education, winning an election is more important.
And?
Yes, the sun did come up this morning.

You need some work on your grammar. Beyond that, everyone knows that many, perhaps most, immigrants don't learn a new language, but their children do, and that completes the process.
On the lower east side in NYC, where imigration was housed in the 1900s, there were entire neighborhoods where
English wasn't spoken.
BTW, the platform of either party is meaningless, anyway.

Maybe you should talk to the people in Kansas about Conservatives views on "higher standards of education".

Actually I believe it is Pennsylvania. After all, in all the recent money woes, Texas has still got a good economy and good loving people with morals. So, you're back to your usual put downs I see. I thought at one time you changed that..... guess not.

Oh please Ken, I don't think the state of Texas would let her in... After all, her hate for Texas would almost qualify her to be a terrorist here. She's already stated in the past that Christians should be killed. See a correlation?
