I guess Cheerios should thank Coca-Cola for deflecting the idiots from complaining about their ad with the biracial couple in it.

I'm wondering what advantage people like to see in a country that would have multiple languages spoken and accepted in it.
oh idk maybe because language is the central vehicle of cultural expression that allows communities to maintain historical tradition and some people would like to see these communities maintained rather than destroyed by xenophobic and oppressive language laws. this is a very American opinion of mine.
This is of course true to a degree, and is one of the reasons why the ethnic enclaves of the United States are so culturally valued. But there is a difference between ethnic enclaves and showcasing America as a bilingual nation. Our national motto has a meaning that should be taken a bit more literally.

..which would be a lot easier if it were in English Tongue
In God We Trust is in English. Tongue

The smug, authoritarian tone of 1950s advertising just does not work anymore. 

Plus if they remade that ad today, not all the kids would be WASPs.
