Plain language of the 14th Amendment, but only some of the plain language, and excluding some of it to suit one’s notion.

“and subject to the jurisdiction thereof”

If all words are there for a reason, and all words have meaning, what is the meaning of this phrase?

Does the intent of the drafter matter?
