I don't doubt that. I think we all know a lot of Hispanic people. But as with every other type of immigrant, their children and grandchildren normally meld into society pretty seamlessly within 30 or 40 years. Thanks to the miracles of radio and the Boob Tube, nearly all come to speak ENGLISH as their primary language.
DG has described something different... isolated colonies of Hispanics that, in a few hundred years, still haven't embraced American culture or English. I've never encountered that with Hispanics. That sounds more like Quakers, Mennonites and reservation dwelling Indians to me. I don't think that MANY people live like that, but I don't deny that there are pockets of them here and there.
BTW, half the people in America's largest cities speak ENGLISH that I don't understand. So the article's point is lost on me...
