You are probably familiar with this semi-infamous statement of Barack Obama: "Instead of worrying about whether immigrants can learn English -- they'll learn English -- you need to make sure your child can speak Spanish." But you may be unfamiliar with what came next out of Obama's mouth:

"You should be thinking about, how can your child become bilingual? We should have every child speaking more than one language. You know, it's embarrassing when Europeans come over here. They all speak English -- they speak French, they speak German. And then we go over to Europe. And all we can say is, 'Merci beaucoup.'"
