I am aware that English is not the official language of the U.S., but can you give me some actual basis for what I bolded above? Not jailhouse lawyer logic please, some kind of real facts.

Also, it is worth noting that English is the official language of most states and a number of our territories as well. While I can imagine situations in which a U.S. citizen might not speak English, and I'm sure there are actual examples somewhere, I seriously doubt that there are sufficient numbers of non-English speaking U.S. citizens to make your subsequent point more than moot.
