Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich equated bilingual education Saturday with "the language of living in a ghetto" and mocked requirements that ballots be printed in multiple languages.

"The government should quit mandating that various documents be printed in any one of 700 languages depending on who randomly shows up" to vote, said Gingrich, who is considering seeking the Republican presidential nomination in 2008. He made the comments in a speech to the National Federation of Republican Women.

"The American people believe English should be the official language of the government. ... We should replace bilingual education with immersion in English so people learn the common language of the country and they learn the language of prosperity, not the language of living in a ghetto," Gingrich said to cheers from the crowd of more than 100.

I agree with Newt somewhat on this one. English is the equivalent of Mandarin and needs to be taught to everyone. I would leave the ballots alone though.

Everyone who immigrates to the U.S. needs to learn how to speak, read, and write English. PERIOD. All government documents, forms, ballots, etc. should only be printed in English.

American school students should also have to learn a second language to better compete in the global economy. One of: Spanish, Portuguese, Mandarin, German, or Japanese would be a good choice.

Thank you.... Mr spokesman for the Dept of Education. LOL

For college prep students, units in a foreign language have been required for years. In California it's been required for decades. And Cal used to require a third language for undergraduates.
