If somebody were to bark at him in German I'd bet he'd piss his pants...

He isn't that bright, that's for sure. Obama needs to make sure that he has life insurance, lots of it. I highly doubt the elite will let this clown become President. Everyone will know it was a farce of an election and there would be a revolt. The elite aren't scared of blacks rioting, but they are scared of whites revolting.
They have their hands full with black liberation ebonics...

I speak four languages and am working on Mandarin currently. The only thing I use them for in the US is knowing when someone else is talking smack about me.
...or having fun at the San Jose' Flea Market where the Hispanics mock the gringos constantly and jack the prices up on them...
Obama needs to learn Spanish himself and hang out at a flea market to experience this in person. He'll change his tune quickly after a few transactions.
"A leader, for a change." - Jimmy Carter, 1976 campaign slogan. Sound familiar? Here it comes again!
If so then we won't need to revolt. We will just impeach Obama and get things back on track. I don't think the elites are finished with the lone superpower yet. But if they put Obama in there we will be finished with them though.
But this only works one way, right Barack Hussein? Anglos need to teach their kids Spanish, but Mexican immigrants and their kids don't need to learn a word of English, thanks to Spanish language schools and other social services.
Resolve to serve no more, and you are at once freed. I do not ask that you place hands upon the tyrant to topple him over, but simply that you support him no longer; then you will behold him, like a great Colossus whose pedestal has been pulled away, fall of his own weight and break in pieces.
Spanglish: the official language of the North American Union
"Hey mi homey, pas?"
"If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your counsel nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.Samuel Adams
My son was about 11 years old in 1996. He asked me around that time if he should learn to speak "Chinese" ... I wonder if he was a prophet ?

why spanish? (asking rhetorically) why not encourage children to learn any second language? and further what is this you SHOULD bs? btw, does obama speak spanish? do his wife and children?
Well said, christine.
Learning a second language is a good skill set for America's children to acquire starting in elementary school (not later than middle school) if they want to be a desirable hire (eventually after they graduate from college) in a global economy.
I would think that learning Russian or Chinese or Farsi [ future dominant economies] and/ or French ( we do a lot of trade and tourism business with Canada) might be a more suitable language to learn than Spanish frankly for future career positioning though basic Spanish is a good to know as an additional 3rd language especially if one's residence is in southwest states, Florida, or California.
Frankly any second language is good for children to be exposed to early in education - it's good brain food - the greater number of cognitive patterns/paths that are established early in life the better.
Good question about what second languages Michelle and Barack are fluent in though.
Evidently in 2006 Obama is quoted as responding as follows to that question:
Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.): Indonesian and a little Spanish.
"a little Spanish" is not what he is recommending that American children NEED to learn when he pontificates on his campaign trail July, 2008 though. ha!
With regards to Michelle's second language skills...err...don't ask, don't tell is probably the best policy unless you want to get your head chopped off by daring to ask Mrs. Perfection such a "rude" question.
