Both of those references make a point of saying in the text that there is no 
official language in the USA. That seems to be an odd way of answering my 
question.  Whose side are you on here?

English is the _default_ language, at least in most states - but that is an 
entirely different matter.  When my daughter moved to Florida English did 
not seem to be even the default in the area she was in.
