True, but then I wonder why those who wrote this didn’t just use plain, ordinary language such as - no person born in the U.S. of a foreigner or alien is to be granted citizenship. Instead, they had to add fancy words like subject to the jurisdiction thereof. See how this would have been a much better approach? Legalese can be so elitist.
the whole 14th needs to be thrown out. it is a mini Constitution that created the “United States” as opposed to a united several States.
