What???

Answer 2

True.  At the time when the constitution was signed there was a vote on the official language, and English beat German by only one vote.  The issue was deemed too contentious, so no official language was recorded.  Now with the huge rise in minorities, mainly Spanish speakers, it is seen as a racist issue and has been avoided on a federal level.  There are some states that have declared English as the official language.
