Prime Time
I just heard Antonio Villaraigosa, the mayor of Los Angeles, say that he is offended by the reconception of our national anthem (into something called “Nuestro Himno”) and that those seeking to become American citizens should speak English.
I haven’t much followed Angeleno politics since living there six years ago, but Villaraigosa’s opinions are somewhat surprising to me. I don’t recall him being that close to the center back then.
I’m pleased to know there’s a major Latino politician willing to stand up for English as America’s primary language.
