Knowing how to speak Spanish gives you an advantage in today's business culture.  I have no intention of voting for Jeb Bush but if I was, that wouldn't be a reason to change my mind. 4951

I admire a person's ability to speak more than one language.  I know some Spanish but am not fluent in it.  Not that being bilingual or not would be a deciding factor for me, but Bush is trying to gain some of the Hispanic voters that lean Democratic. 4951

Oh, come on!  This was a clear ploy to attract certain votes.  Have you heard any other Candidate talk about what language they speak in their home?  I want to hear how they will handle issues!  4951

@SenseOfHumor:  Yes, I want to hear them discuss the issues, but have learned that whatever they say as a candidate bears no meaning once they win an office.  They will say whatever the group they are speaking to wants to hear them say.Remember Obama's pledge to have the most open and transparent administration in the history of the USA?  Along with HOPE and CHANGE, that was a key to his platform.

It's still early (but time is running out), but I don't see anybody in there yet that I'm impressed with (and we need somebody "impressive" to beat Hillary). Hopefully, that will change. 4951

@cador: Very good point. It's scary to see Hillary as the front-runner. The Republicans aren't getting any help from the likes of Trump. They don't have anybody that stands but do have at least two candidates who are hurting their cause. Trump is one, Cruz the other. Rubio is the one I would consider at this point.

I'm second generation Sicilian. All the elders spoke Italian. My great grandmother never learned English. For the most part.
 
Someone mentioned that not speaking Spanish hurts business. This is true.
 
I have said many times that I was loosing 60% of southwest business because I speak minimal Spanish.
 
However I can communicate pretty good, even when they lol at me.
 
That is not what bothers me about this candidate.
No matter what they pander the hill rolls.
 
You can have a better way to make french fries and if you get a job at mcd, you don't get to go in and change it. Politics is kinda the same. Get on board or well a few presidents come to my old mind. 4951

This is the typical liberal response to the issue.  "English isn't the official language of America, so everyone has to learn Spanish." 4951

@SenseOfHumor:
 
It was a Spanish speaking interview so unless you are bilingual like him, you wouldn't have understood anyway.
 
I haven't heard any other candidates being asked.
 
Without Hispanic votes, repubs don't have a chance. 4951
