Location: Texas | Am I the only one that liked the Time machine commercial? lol. Probably my favorite commercial I saw. There were a couple of cute ones, but the commercials for the most part stunk this year.

Not me. I've lived in other countries and you learn their language/ customs while there, not demand that they become 'Americanized '. That'd go over like a maggot in meat. |

| I will still drink Coke. I kind of got the melting pot point. I didn't pay that much attention to it. The country was founded by people who were not native to here. I think of communities all throughout our country where populations of legal citizens with origins from other countries who continue to teach their language and customs from their country of origin to the younger generations in their families as well as the English language & American customs. Maybe I misunderstood the commercial. I didn't watch closely. |

Location: Exactly where I am supposed to be | I liked the time machine one too, but for the most part I thought they were lame compared to other years, and i disliked the coke and scientology one. However I loved the Budweiser comercials (as usual) and the Doberwawa one I died laughing at that one lol the chevy one with the herford bull was cute to. |

The immigrants that came over pre 1980's assimilated. They were so proud to become U.S. Citizens that of course they kept their customs and mother tongue but learned English. I think of the European ancestors and how impressed they were with the Statue of Liberty and all that she stood for, wanting so badly to fit in... Just my .02, and in this economy, it's not even worth that, haha

You guys realize that the white people invaded America and took it over from the actual Native residents, right?
Whether you like it or not, America IS a melting pot and people speak all languages. |
