Despite some controversy surrounding it, I thought the Coke commercial during the Super Bowl featuring people singing "America the Beautiful" in various languages was a nice tribute to our country. Most of you did too.

Jamie wrote:

"I agree that there is beauty in celebrating our linguistic diversity. Why do we need to fear multilingualism?"

But Sue thought:

"I would have thought it a better commercial had they had all the various nationalities in their native dress singing in English."

Kathleen wrote:

"I thought the singing was absolutely beautiful. Gave me goose bumps!!"

Jean said:

"You should be proud that immigrants are singing 'America the Beautiful'."

From Ric:

"Very cool stance on the Coke ad. I applaud you."

Ross wasn't applauding though:

"I'm a devoted Pepsi guy from Sunday on."

Jessica said:

"I loved your 2 cents, Kelly! The diversity, different languages, and cultures are what make America, America!"

Christie:

"I thought it was a beautiful commercial, it made me tear up!"

Lucinda:

"Didn't like it, they're in America!"

From Amy:

"I thought it beautifully depicted our 'melting pot' of a nation through the voices of the people."

And finally, Cindy wrote:

"This is America! Learn our language, come here legally, or get out! And, Kelly, that's my TEN CENTS!"
