Learning the Language: Presidential Candidates’ Views on Bilingual Education
Tagged: bilingual, blogPosted on: November 28th, 2007
Five Democrats running for U.S. president back bilingual education, and two Republicans running for the position oppose it. That’s what the Hispanic Link Weekly Report learned when it posed the following question to the staff of 17 politicians competing in the presidential primaries that begin Jan. 3: “What is your candidate’s position, if any, on bilingual education?”
Hispanic Link Weekly Report, a national newsletter about Hispanic issues available only by subscription, published a summary of the views of the seven candidates who responded to the survey in its Nov. 26 issue. With permission from Hispanic Link, I post the summaries here, quoted word for word”*
