The "anchor baby" thing was not part of the original Constitution. It was added so that the children of slaves would be considered citizens.

It was NOT meant for everyone in the whole world could come here, drop a kid and gain citizenship.

Since we have no more slaves, this rule should go.

I understand the original intent; but that doesn’t change the danger in tampering w/ the constitution.
