Previously Unnoticed GOP Platform Plank

"All place names in the United States with foreign language (especially Spanish) origins will be replaced with solid English names."

Los Angeles will now be known as Bigtown, CA.
San Francisco will be Bay City, CA
San Antonio will be renamed to Saint Anthony, TX
The Grand Tetons will become the Big Boobs Mountains.

You get the idea. It's the Republican way.

Make America English Again!

It's not my plank, after all. No doubt there will be some changes.

It'll be a freaking revolutionary change!

California, New Mexico and Texas are going to be chock full of new place names.

And yes, Nevada should be change to Snowy, too.

And then, there's New Mexico. What shall we do with that tribute to our southern neighbor? It can't be allowed to stand, I'd think.
