whoa, kent..my comment was in response to the statement by KHJ6U, that the number of Spanish speaking people in Abq, didn't justify another Spanish station, the population numbers speak for theselves... ..Secondly Hispanic is not a race, my comments of the ethnic make-up of the politicians again, was meant to point out that Abq has a large Hispanic population as San Antonio, LA , Denver, and like them is being reflected by the make-up of the elected officials....Whether there is a law as you say about both English and Spanish, I don't know, Ill take your word for it...as far as the bilingual advertising being bureaucratic vs commercial...well you certainly missed the boat there..it is 1,000% commercial and has nothing to do with a law...... I don't know where you were going with the roots thing,,,,but it's actually the opposite..a large majority of New Mexicans actually prefer to attempt to trace their roots to Spain rather than Mexico, because they are ashamed to be classified Mexican..Again I refer to a George Lopez comment.."Yeah, yeah,,both your parents are from Mexico, but you're Spanish"
And finally if you believe that they are not here in the numbers that the statistics claim..you need to watch an old Star Trek episode "The Trouble With Tribble"...addios amigo....
