I would, though I know that won't happen. I would severely restrict legal immigration as well though I don't see that happening anytime soon.
No one in congress is suggesting that we strip citizenship from "anchor babies" already here. What is being proposed is that after the law was re-interpreted the way it was meant to be that any babies born from illegal aliens from that point forward would not gain birthright citizenship.
So, what do you want to do? Strip away citizenship from anchor babies? Can't do that unless they are a terrorist, and a terrorist that is a dual citizen only
It COULD happen, ask the Dominican Republic in how they are dealing with their Haitian problem. Tho the DR is playing too rough even for me.
Wong Kim Ark, who was born in San Francisco to Chinese parents around 1871, had been denied re-entry to the United States after a trip abroad, under a law restricting Chinese immigration and prohibiting immigrants from China from becoming naturalized U.S. citizens. He challenged the government's refusal to recognize his citizenship, and the Supreme Court ruled in his favor, holding that the citizenship language in the Fourteenth Amendment encompassed essentially everyone born in the U.S.—even the U.S.-born children of foreigners—and could not be limited in its effect by an act of Congress.
I have no idea why one has to cover something over and over. It makes no difference. The 14th makes no distinction. Later laws do not negate the 14th protections as this case shows.
If Congress wanted to exclude the children of illegals when they changed the laws they had to amend the 14th. They never did.
really.... so you cant tell the difference between LEGAL and ILLEGAL???
Quote:
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside.
interpret which ever way you want...but its talking about people LEGALLY here and offspring who would be born here
it CERTAINLY would not be talking about AWARDING an ILLEGAL ACTION
do you really think that the states would ratify an amendment , that would allow a REWARD for an illegal action???
would you give a job (reward) at a bank to a bank robber??? should all these ILLEGAL ACTIONS just be ''forgiven'' (amnestied )
if someone stole your car would you reward him/her with ownership of the stolen car???
most people within the USA are sick and tired of the liberal amnesties (9 of them since 1965) of ILLEGALS
It doesn't..only tells yo the degree of hatred towards anyone who isn't deemed relevant as peoples..and that of course varies depending on who THEY are and who they represent...
Oh Grey..It was never an issue until hate rose up against those folk who take jobs away from them..Course None of Them would ever do those jobs as it's beneath them..
TOO bad so sad...It's how the system has always worked..best folks understand just how their own Nation was initially built and devolped ..Many just have no CLUE how their own Country actually became the nation it is as of today
This continued rhetoric will never fly in the near future..Anyone NOT originating from back like 200 years ago..are somehow deemed infiltrators..using their Country..Hatred on purely mis-informations..blaming all ills on illegals..blaming anyone NOT like themselves as "Taker's"..It hasn't stopped since 2009..I say..OP is correct..WHitehouse elected office is a dim possibility..and those in office obstructing any laws benefiting regular Americans while reap the rewards...While it doesn't affect me personally..It certainly affects my American friends who are forced to endure such BS.....
Just stop it, please. I'm guessing you're a Canadian and your country is MUCH tougher on illegal aliens than the US.
The Republicans will never be elected to another national office, i.e. President. Because they have alienated women, gays, minorities, foreigners, and moderate religious people.
The only people left to vote for them are the extreme right wing religious whackos, gun owners and the 1%ers.
They will continue to hold Congressional seats because many are in rural, inbred areas.
So have the Dems in recent years. Look at the midterms last year, many Dems LOST the governorships in many "blue" states. Too, IF the economy doesn't pick up, that could REALLY hurt Hillary IF she even makes it through the primary.
Birth tourists get instant U.S. citizenship for their newborns. That is stupid.
hard to see how anyone could disagree with this.
even leftist pinheads.
