Why should Americans learn Spanish if we live in our OWN country?

I'm learning German because I want to GO TO Germany.

So why do so many Mexicans, Central Americans, and South Americans coming here (legally and illegally) refuse to learn our language, and make us learn theirs?

If you disagree, then why are there about 500 students at my school that CANNOT speak english? I may not be perfect, but hey, this country was english speaking since the conception.

Does learning another language (Spanish, for instance) help one to appreciate and "love" another culture?

I got to figuring ... if I (or someone else) learns Spanish, and learns it well, do you HAVE to learn to "love the Spanish culture" also? I mean, can one go without the other?

My daughter might have to learn a foreign language someday, and though Spanish might be the most useful (because of all the goddamn illegal Mexicans in my area) ... I don't want to encourage a love or respect for "La Raza" ... next thing you know, she'll be bringing home some gang-bangin' Mexican ex-con ...

... should I encourage her to learn French or German, instead?
Francis, you're a goddamn GENIE-US ... go give yourself a congratulatory enema or something.

I might make the distinction ... if I had any "people from Spain" living in my town. But, seeing as they're all from "Mexico" or "Somewhere even more south than Mexico" ... MEANS THAT THEY'RE MEXICANS, for all intents and purposes.
Maybe I should have said "Mexican" culture ... different or not, it's all the same to me.

What's the difference between Spanish spoken in Spain & in Mexico?

I want to learn Spanish mainly to talk to Mexican people.I was thinking of using Rosetta Stone (which brings me to another question - is Rosetta Stone reliable?) but they only offer Spanish (Spain) & Spanish (Latin America) (question #3 which is closer to Mexican Spanish Latin America, or Spain's spanish?).But the point is, would either of those be efficient for talking to Mexicans? And if so how much?

Why do you gringos/mexicans make fun of mexicans that cant talk spanish?

you mexicans are white washed

Do you learn a foreign language before you go to that country?

I ask about Mexicans, and wonder why they don't learn the language at least before illegally immigrating to our country.

It never fails that someone asks "Why don't you learn Spanish before you go to Mexico?"...

The argument always ends when I reply with "I did."

And I would learn any language (enough to communicate) before I went to that country, or at least get a translator. I think it's very rude, just like I do about the illegal Mexicans.

Do you? Why or why not?

Spanish language/culture question: How do Mexicans refer to white people?

What are the different ways (in Spanish) that Mexicans refer to white people? I'm looking for derogatory terms, polite terms, "correct" terms, anything.

More importantly, as a white female who speaks Spanish (rather, trying to become more fluent), how would I refer to myself?
And as long as everyone's stuck on being PC, I'm referring to Caucasian Americans.
I'd like to point out that I'm NOT referring to Mexicans as a race, and am asking specifically about people from Mexico. Hence, Mexicans. I mean no disrespect.
