From CNN: "Rick Santorum on Wednesday laid out one caveat he would hold for the U.S. territory of Puerto Rico before it obtained statehood, saying the island would need to make English its principal language before it becomes a state." On an island where 95% of residents speak Spanish in the home, Santorum would require that the government be run via a language with which 81% speak "less than very well." That is not good language policy.
