Obama ashamed of English language?

Michelle Obama is just plain ashamed of her country. Barack Obama apparantly is ashamed of the fact that English is spoken in the United States.

He'd like more us to speak French.

Sen. Obama has voted against "official English" four times in 2006 and 2007 and earned an "F" rating from the English First advocacy group in 2006.

English First Executive Director Jim Boulet Jr.:
"What next, Senator? Will you be saying that too many Americans are bitterly clinging to our English language? Why does it seem you are always looking down your nose at the rest of us?"
English First: Why is Senator Obama Ashamed of Our American Language?

It is funny how some yanks confuse the USA with the whole of America.
The American continent is home to many people who do not speak English (eg Portugese in Brazil, French in Canada, Spanish in much of South and Central Amreica, even Javanese in Surinam) so how can you claim that the USA dialect of English is the langusge of the whole of America.
