i dont see why people are so upset about this. coca cola is an american based company but they have factories all over the world. seems like they are just thanking everyone. at least they left God in the lyrics.

I don't see anything wrong with it. It's no different than older Cajun members of the VFW saying the Pledge of Alegiance in French.

How quickly people forget we were all immigrants at one time. Or at least the ones before us.

My grandmother's parents insisted on speaking english in the home after immigrating from Costa Rica. We're all Americans of hispanic descent, but we're Americans. We don't need or ask folks to speak spanish to make us feel more welcome.
A difficulty caused my great grandparents to have to stop over in Cuba for seven years while my great grandfather made shoes to earn enough money to complete the voyage. My aunt America was born during this time. She just turned 99. Their generation of immigrants did not pretend that America would be free or easy, nor did they aspire to maintain allegiance to the nations or cultures that had failed them. They became unhyphenated Americans. They adapted to their new country. They did not expect their new country to adapt to them. |

This ad really irritates me. My grandparents were scorned for speaking French in school. They were taught if you were going to live in America, you speak English. Otherwise me and a lot of ppl on this site would be fluent in our native language. But now we have to cater to everyone else? Just aggregating to me that now it's ok and shoved down our throats.

I have no problems with the ad.
If you want to learn French now to carry forward your heritage. Go for it. I have my kids enrolled in a French immersion school for that reason. |

Je n'ai pas de problème avec elle, nous étions tous fois immigrés. Je suis sûr que mes ancêtres n'est pas venu ici légalement.
Ich habe kein Problem damit, wir waren alle einmal Einwanderer. Ich bin ziemlich sicher, dass meine Vorfahren rechtlich nicht kamst. I don't have a problem with it, we were all once immigrants. I'm pretty sure my forefathers didn't come here legally. |
