AZ Bear, I hear ya but I don't think if the law is changed that it will be made retroactive. Honestly, this country has been so destroyed by PC bleeding hearts that I think there would be a public outrage at that. I think the most we can hope for is to get the birthright amendment changed so that the abuse stops from that point forward.

And in all fairness: with the growing crackdown on illegal aliens; the odds are quite high that minor age Anchors will follow their illegal alien parents out of the USA.

Well I certainly hope that is what will happen. Family values and all you know. The problem is that the anchor would still hold citizenship in this country and could sponsor their parents to come back here after the anchor turns 18. All we can do at this point is to do as much damage control as possible by getting the birthright citizenship amendment re-interpreted for the future. I wish we could do more than that but I am not optimistic about it happening.

I thought the Anti crowd hade already figured that one out

Shelby and rocks travel in the same bag.
For not reading any political forums, or politics, you seem to be all up on it. Not that it's a bad thing.

I could live with that if an end was put to any future anchor babies, and the sponsorship was limited to just parents, no brothers, sisters, nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, etc.
