“You eliminate birthright citizenship, you will regret it.”

What planet do you live on?

I have not, in any way, suggested eliminating citizenship by birth, However, there has NEVER been a legal basis for saying those here illegally give birth to citizens.

“What would stop Obama from stripping citizenship from folks like you on the grounds that you are ‘seditious’...”

Ummm....because I was born here, to parents here legally? Because my Mom wasn’t a foreign citizen who came to visit the USA just before she was due to deliver? Because my parents’ presence in the USA wasn’t based on my being born here first? Because I meet the legal requirements for citizenship by birth, unlike the children born to an invading army?

I have a hard time thinking that a court will decide that lettuce harvesters and chicken pluckers are members of an invading army.

And so do they. They meet the legal requirements as well.

There is no requirement that your parents must be citizens in order to become a citizen of the US. None whatsoever. What you are proposing is to strip citizenship from certain citizens of the United States.
