So sad people can't realize that Coke is an international brand and the Super Bowl is an international event. People getting feelings hurt over commerce.

Pretty simple for me. We are a multiple cultural nation and coke wants more than just white people to buy their product.

I think SaltyCajun has a lot of Stevie Wonders roaming the board.

I doubt that many on this board speak Natchez ( there are about 6 speakers left in the world). So, none of us speak the native language of this land and we all should have got the f out a long time ago... OR maybe should be tolerant of all the other non-native speakers.

My dad had to learn to speak English when he started school since French wasn't the spoken in school. And yes I had a problem with the commercial. Once a person decides to make America their home they need to conform. If they love their previous country so much, they should have stayed. Accepting is killing this country.. America the beautiful in America is suppose to be sang in English!! To many sheeple.

I can't believe these ideas still exist.

Could you imagine if other countries had this sentiment towards us?

I've traveled the world, and so do a lot of folks that bring large amounts of money back into the crap pot towns y'all live in. And, if it weren't for foreign people being tolerant of our arrogant American asses, we would never be successful over there. I don't know a single American person speaking an Asian language, yet we go over there and expect everyone to cater to us. And they do.

This is a global generation, this is a country founded on immigration.

LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL, not just your entitled white ***

FREEDOM OF SPEECH, people are free to speak however they feel. There is no asterix that says *as long as it's in southern english*

Think about it

Hope no one who has responded to this thread with "BE AMERICAN ONLY" eats french, italian, asian, greek, lebanese, german, thai, spanish foods...

no one drinks scotch, vodka, irish whiskey, canadian whiskey, french/italian/spanish wine...

no one buys vehicles with any parts made or assembled in another country..

no one shops at walmart to buy things made from across the world...


no one owns a firearm made anywhere other than America..

Conservatives holding true to our founding principles are the only reason this country didn't collapse decades ago. But the liberal communists can rest easy knowing thier work is nearly done, the tipping point has been reached and nothing can stop them now. Stick out your chest and be proud America, we are witnessing the fall of the Roman Empire

Yep, it's hard to believe how blind so many peeps are to the end of society as we know it. I've been to many countries and see how similar we are becoming to these 2nd and 3rd world places..

Speaking just for me, but the end of society as we know it because:

We are now a nation without even the slightest generally agreed apoun and accepted values moral or beliefs. No right or wrong any more, do whatever you feel like

The value of hard is no longer appreciated, sloth is encouraged and sanctioned by the government.

The value of family is no longer appreciated and openly ridiculed in society. This is the glue that holds our society together.

Free market capitalism and the Christian work ethic built this country. Elected officials in our highest offices are now openly hostile toward these principles

We are being systematically scrubbed of our national identity as Americans at every turn and being nudged toward a more global identity. One world government so the wealth can be shared.

When the government takes 45 to 50% of the fruits of your labor to give to those unwilling to work, and over half the citizens of this country are ok with that.

I could go on for days about this, I'm sorry for the rant, but I am bored today.

While I agree with most of your points, and am well aware of a "one world push", I whole heartedly doubt coke is influenced by the illuminati to further a one world system.... That's what this debate is about, and I personally liked the fact that the commercial had our nations song being sung in various languages.

If they had recited the Koran, sang Iran's national anthem, and closed it with Kim Jong Un taking a big swig in the coke ad, the disgust and hatred would make sense .

Our founding principals were based on religious equality, freedom of speech, and escaping the persecution of our ruler.

I proudly stick out my chest and salute the flag, and so do my children. They also know that we are all people, and we are all different and equal under the same creator.

THAT's AMERICA

The America most on here describe is one that eliminates all feeling of offensiveness. Someone speaks another language and it offends you. Someone has a differing opinion or religious belief and it offends you. Sound familiar? Sounds pretty liberal to me.
