Note to all:
This essay is a somewhat small part of a larger idea I have had for some time, how America was conquered and who did it.
But die to the pending announcement of zero tomorrow night, I kinda hacked something together.
Whether or not I finish America conquered, I have no idea.
You are right on regarding the 14th Amendment——passed in the wake of the Civil War by intimidation and favor (like Obamacare) and intended to address the citizenship of former slaves, not waves of illegal immigrants. A good start would be its repeal.
