"But the federal courts have never specifically addressed the question of whether children born to those in the country illegally should be entitled to citizenship, says Michael M. Hethmon, general counsel of the Immigration Reform Law Institute, which favors tighter restrictions on immigration and has advised the state legislators on their efforts.
Berman says the 14th Amendment was meant to clarify the status of freedmen and "does not apply to foreigners. The 14th Amendment, which is being used to provide citizenship, is the last thing that should be used."

Name an invading army that would threaten America and who would bring both men and women and who would then have the luxury of time to make babies.

American citizenship has nothing to do with where you are born.
citizenship is based upon religion and ideology
Since America is a christian nation then any person, even those born in the U.S. to American parents, who does NOT believe in the christian god, is NOT a U.S. citizen and does NOT have constitutional rights. At least, that is what g h w bush said....
and we all know that liberals and democrats are "treasonous traitors" who "hate America"
so they are NOT U.S. citizens and deserve NO constitutional protections
Only conservative christians, conservative republicans (no RINOS) can be citizens and entitled to constitutional rights
at least
that's what rush limbaugh and ann coulter and mike savage and bill oreilly and glenn beck say

Are children of illegals NOT subject to the jurisdiction of US law?
slaves were not citizens. They were NOT illegals, but they were brought here against their will. They never came here trying to be citizens and they never took oaths swearing to become citizens, so why are their children citizens?
hello?

I am not trying to raise sympathy for the illegals, although some certainly deserve it, but rather to point out the problems the INS, Boarder Patrol, and the courts will face in trying to deport millions of people.

Suppose the courts would rule that a child born in the US with illegal parents is not a citizen. A lot of kids live on the streets without parents, some live with relatives, one parent, or friends. So if the courts interpreted the constitution in this manner, law enforcement would have to determine the citizenship of the parents who may or may not be living with the kid. If law enforcement stops the kid on the street, then the kid has to have proof of the citizenship of his parents as well as himself. This will never fly.
Expecting the government to control the boarders and remove up to 20 million illegal immigrants is insane. The last thing we need is a bunch new laws that cannot be enforced. We need to take a practical approach to immigration reform starting with protecting our boards from illegal immigration. We need to punish businesses that knowingly hire illegally. Lastly, if we ever hope to get control over the immigration problem we are going have to integrated illegal aliens into our society otherwise they will remain an undocumented phantom subculture that lives on the edge of criminality, doesnÂ’t pay taxes, and is a drain of social services.
