Barack Obama thinks Americans are embarassing
Posted at 5:10am on Jul. 9, 2008 I'm Having a Hard Time Selecting my Favorite Part of this Video

H/t to RedState diarist Robert L. Mayo!
You know, I have studied four languages besides English, including two that aren't spoken anywhere on Earth anymore, so I'm generally of the opinion that learning foreign languages is useful. We're teaching our son some Spanish as he goes along, and he enjoys learning it.
That said...
The above video is absolutely made of awesome. It's got so much awesome in there that I'm having a hard time sorting it all out. Is my favorite part:
1. The part where Obama admits that he "doesn't get" the drive for English only?
2. The part where he states, immediately afterwards, that one shouldn't worry about the immigrants, because "they'll learn English" (seriously, because no one has ever encountered immigrants who can't speak English)?
3. The part where he proceeds to berate American citizens for not learning Spanish (specifically)?
4. The part where he says that he's embarrassed by Americans, especially compared to the French?
5. The part where he relates a story that is familiar to all Americans who have visited France, and takes the side of the French? Or,
6. The part where all the Obama supporters enjoy a good, hearty laugh at the expense of Americans who can't speak French. A group which, apparently, includes Barack Obama. But that doesn't make this video any less awesome.
I'm having trouble deciding. What's your favorite part?
