What would happen to German-Americans without WWI?

What would happen to German-American without WWI, and the German language in USA?
Wheren't most formerly German settlers already fully integrated at that point? New immigrants might keep speaking German (which would be less frowned upon), but I don't think that would continue to be a major minority language.
 
There wouldn't be nearly as much of a stigma in learning the language. In fact, I'd be willing to bet more grade and high schools would teach German.

Likewise, aren't somewhere near 30+% of Americans of German-descent? Definately German culture becomes a hell of a lot more important in America, and areas where people speak all-German in the US are likely to exist (because no WWI means that the Kaiser is going to leave the throne another, no doubt more violent kind-of way...)
 
They wouldn't have been thrown into American internment camps.

Wrong war...:p

WWI was the one where they changed their names to sound non-German and they renamed hamburgers and sauerkraut "liberty sausage" and "liberty cabbage" respectively...

Get your wars straight.
