</span></div>
<div><span>Dear Coke: THIS IS AMERICA AND WE SPEAK AMERICAN #boycottcoke</span></div>
<div><span><br />
</span></div>
<div><span>So was Coca-Cola saying America is beautiful because new immigrants don't learn to speak English?</span></div>
<div><span><br />
</span></div>
<div><span>So A commercial for the Super Bowl cost. 2.8 million. CocaCola just lost that and more After America the Beautiful. #boycottcoke</span></div>
<div><span><br />
</span></div>
<div><span><br />
</span></div>
<div><span>Hey @CocaCola this is America. We speak English. Quit slapping real Americans in the face with your offensive commercials. #BoycottCoke</span></div>
<div><span><br />
</span></div>
<div><span>TIME went on to say:</span></div>
<div><span><br />
</span></div>
<div>''Coca Cola's entry into the Super Bowl ad campaign had a message that was, as it were, Coke Classic: it celebrated the many kinds, colors, lifestyles and origins of Americans who are nonetheless one. Over a scene of these many Americans, it played a patriotic song: not the National Anthem, but the more accessible, singable&nbsp;''America the Beautiful.''&nbsp;It showed us a panoply of American faces, young, old, brown, white, straight, gay (it included what are said to be the first gay parents depicted in a Super Bowl ad), in cowboy hats and hijabs, playing, eating, and exploring all-American vistas.''</div>

<div><span>SEVERAL PEOPLE ARE QUOTING PRESIDENT TEDDY ROOSEVELT</span>'<span>S COMMENTS:</span></div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><span>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;</span>''Every immigrant who comes here should be required within five years to learn English or leave the country.</div>
<div><span>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;In the first place we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the man&rsquo;s becoming in very fact an American, and nothing but an American. If he tries to keep segregated with men of his own origin and separated from the rest of America, then he isn&rsquo;t doing his part as an American.</span></div>
<div><span>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn</span>'<span>t an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag, and this excludes the red flag, which symbolizes all wars against liberty and civilization, just as much as it excludes any foreign flag of a nation to which we are hostile.</span></div>
<div><span>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language for we intend to see that the crucible turns our people out as Americans, and American nationality, and not as dwellers in a polyglot boarding house; and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.</span>''</div>
