    Now defunct French poster Rudel apparently said that he'd rather France became predominantly Black but still French-speaking than remain predominantly White but no longer French-speaking. How do you feel about this?

    I don't know how to answer. As an American, my country has no one race. It would be a shame if the USA lost English, but that's so unrealistic that I can't even imagine it being possible

    In the South it may be possible. Where I live Spanish practically dominates. I'd rather not lose the dominance of the English language.

    That's very true, but that isn't the entire country, just a small fraction. I think it's cool to have other languages and cultures within the US. The more diverse the better.

    I actually would love for my country to lose its language and adopt an African one.

    For me race and language. Losing a language like what happened in Anatolia, you get bunch of confused mutts like Bori, who looks like a cracker but thinks he is a gook LOL

    California by itself is home to over a tenth of the US population and an even bigger percentage of the US economy. Hardly insignificant.
