It's pretty simple to me..no one should be able to profit in anyway due to a criminal act..crossing illegal into this country is a criminal act..hence you are not a legal birth......now you here on a school/work visa and give birth..yep kid has dual citizenship..but in order for family to move here they should have to go thru the whole legal method to become law abiding citizens...

What makes anyone think the Supreme Court would for some reason take this issue up? While there are a small number of legal scholars that argue that the children of illegals are not citizens, the vast majority disagree AND those children have been treated as citizens for decades.
So some guy is 50 and his mom and dad snuck into the US and gave birth to him here. He's been treated as a citizen his whole life, has paid taxes and assumes he is entitled to social security when he retires. What rational person thinks that the Supreme Court is going to rule that he is here illegally, can't collect the social security he has paid into since he was 16 and has to be deported? |

When I become POTUS, I will seize Barack Obama's residence through eminent domain and turn it into a prison for illegal aliens. Every time he moves, I will do the same so long as I am POTUS, or until he leaves the country, or until he is no longer alive - whichever comes first. I will do the same for every single elected official or television talking head that supports illegal immigration.

i dont agree with the anchor baby bullshit.
its like your pregnant neighbor breaks into your house at 2am... and gives birth on your couch...... now their kid is legally part of your family, and you have to support them now....its nuts. at least one of the parents must be a us citizen, or the mother must be in the country legally for the baby to be a citizen. IMHO. if they want to deny visas, and entry to pregnant women on vacation or whatever, , to help avoid this bullshit, thats fine with me. |

If you believe in the rest of the amendments as firmly as you believe in the 2nd, it seems pretty straight-forward:
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. No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

"Anchor babies" are not the problem you think they are.
For instance, if a Chinese woman has her kid here and he is a USC, it will still take decades for him to sponsor any other family members into the US legally Taiwanese tend to be big abuser of the "anchor baby" thing not as a means to citizenship, but as a back up in case the Chinese invade then they can send their kids here. |

If a Mexican couple comes here and lives here for a while - hence "domiciled" here - and are carrying on business (i.e., living their lives in some manner), and are still Mexican citizens just like the Chinese people were still Chinese ... I don't see anything to distinguish the two scenarios. Nothing in the quote that you posted mentions, or conditions the holding, on lawful entry/presence. |
