#8  It is simple and a part of US Common Law for 200 years, BEFORE the LSD's agenda adjusted it.

Criminals are not allowed to keep the benefit shalt by their crime.
Otherwise, a bank robber would be allowed to give part of the stolen $$$$ to the DA/Judge for Immunity.

Hence, why ILLEGALS playing this LSD created loophole should NOT be allowed to do so.

#7  So, we get the return of the "one drop rule," and suddenly 23andMe discovers everyone on the planet has some Norte Americano DNA.

#6  ^ strictly speaking, yes. However, the intent of the wording was to prevent states (whose names we do not mention) from restricting the definition of citizen from former slaves. Anyone who that was intended to protect from that has long since died.

Are children of diplomatic personnel in the US, who are born here, citizens by the current interpretations? Are the children of military members who's spouse delivers in a foreign country, foreign nationals or American citizens? Something seems inconsistent and subject to illogical rationalizations. The key is what is pointed out in #1.

#5  "the Constitution would need to be amended"

Just like separation of church and state which does not exist in the constitution or bill of rights. You would be surprised in how much of life is interpretation.

#4  I think the Constitution would need to be amended.

#3  Traditionally, Paraguayan and Bolivian gangsters and drug traffickers have flown their wives to Texas where they give birth in Houston hospitals. This facilitates parents movement in and out of USA.

#2  High praise for Gaetz, but I fear it is quoque paulo nimium serotoo (too little too late).

#1  At least one parent needs to have American blood in the calculation.
