Rick Santorum backtracked on his remarks on English needing to be the main language of Puerto Rico if it ever hoped to become the 51st state in the Union. From the Huffington Post: "'I never said only English should be spoken here. Never did I even intimate that,' Santorum told local reporters gathered in El Capitolio, the island's Capitol building. 'What I said was that English had to be spoken as well as other – obviously Spanish is going to be spoken, this would be a bilingual country.' He goes on to argue that English is key to developing Puerto Rico's economy. I wonder if he thinks that for Argentina, Spain, and other Spanish speaking countries.
