Does being bilingual represent an academic/professional advantage?

Excerpt from the excellent article by Steve Leveen, on the Huffington Post (link):

President Obama should set a simple but profound goal for our nation, as Kennedy did for landing on the moon. It should be the kind of long-term goal that extends beyond any one president: that a majority of Americans be bilingual in one generation from today. That is, by the year 2035, 51 percent of our population should be bilingual, which would make our nation one with the bilingual world.
