Completely agree.
At least one parent should BE a citizen. That's "BE" as in "IS". Not "in the process" or "thinking about it" or any of the other states of limbo Illegals use in perpetuity to gain access to our system of benefits.
are you sure? they approved CFR.
They may see it as a way to capitulate to save themselves ala the FDR court packing scandal.
Check this out. I'll do a search to see if it's posted.

Border Patrol agents deliver baby in truck
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas -- A pregnant Mexican woman who got caught after crossing illegally into the United States gave birth in the back of a Border Patrol agent's vehicle.
The baby is an American citizen because she was born on U.S. soil. But her fate, and that of her mother, are still uncertain. The girl was born 2 1/2 months prematurely and weighed less than 2 pounds.
She was named Sarai Marisol in honor of Marisol Cantu, one of the agents who found her mother.
The woman told authorities she had crossed the border with a group led by a smuggler but was abandoned because she could not keep up. She had been walking for five or six days when she became exhausted, said Alejandro Lopez Bajo with the Mexican Consulate in Laredo.
She was in labor Sunday when three Border Patrol agents found her on the side of the road near the border city of Laredo. Minutes later, the agents delivered the tiny infant in the back of a Border Patrol sport utility vehicle.
"I've never seen anyone that far along in the brush," said Agent Jerry Doyal, a former hospital corpsman in the Navy who pinched the umbilical cord with his fingers.
The baby was at a Corpus Christi hospital with her mother.
The mother can either take her baby home or make a plea to remain in this country. U.S. immigration authorities sometimes go easier on mothers of infants.

========================================
All: This real example passed on by another FReeper is how this woman would have been handled if she had been an American in an illegal status inside Mexico at the time of her child's birth . .
=========================================
"Having been born in Mexico, my sons also have Mexican birth certificates. These birth certificates were issued to my wife and myself by a Mexican registrar. But since I was a foreigner, the registrar required me to show her my Mexican work permit in order to process the paperwork."
"I had to prove I was in Mexico legally for my son to have a birth certificate!"
"When my son was born (in Mexico) this process hit a hitch. My work permit was being renewed for the year, so it was temporarily out of my possession. The registrar would not issue the birth certificate until I had showed her my work permit. So it took us several more weeks to obtain it."
"Can you imagine what would happen in the United States if they refused a birth certificate to the child of an illegal alien?"
"The U.S. Constitution has been twisted to justify the automatic birth citizenship of children of illegal aliens."
"The Mexican constitution (Capitulo II, Articulo 30) actually stipulates that any baby born in Mexican territory, regardless of parentage, is Mexican. But apparently they’ve found a way around that—refusing to issue birth certificates if one or both parents is not in the country legally! How very clever!
The wordng of the Fourteenth Amendment is actually ".. subject to the jurisdiction.." In legal parlance "sub-ject to the law" and "subject to the jurisdiction" refer to completely different concepts. This is why Native Americans did not become citizens under the Fourteenth Amendment (this was changed by another law in 1924). This error crept in in Post 192 as far as I can tell.

Such a nonsense Bill to prevent "anchor babies" will get nowhere in Congress; it is only dung.
Ya'll want to stop "anchor babies"? Too damned bad, it ain't going to happen mates. And good it shouldn't.
A "Constitutional Amendment", ratified by the States, is in order.
Until then the "14th" is the "14th". To bad, so sad, T.S.
Of course there is probably some scum fanatic supremicschit types who would not even want a child to be a Citizen of these United States if one parent is not yet a Citizen but the other is a Citizen. Damned dung for brain types.
Where's the Bill to kick illegals out?
The Oath of The President - check it out.
GOOD!!!
Let's hope it passes!
I'm with you, let's push this thru!

Personally, I like the Chilean law.
We must modify and adapt our immigration law or else our government will not be able to absorb the mass influx of illegal aliens. Disaster is what we are asking for if it is not changed to reflect the reality of this crisis.
(BTW: Mexico guards her Souther Border with ferocious tenacity. It's wide-open Norther Border with the United States has now become Mexico's lifeline for survival.)
Thanks M.I. for your usual solid contributions . .

The Indian Citizenship Act of 1924 is clear evidence that Congress, based on the jurisdiction clause can exclude children of illegals from automatic citizenship. It's not a matter of whether Congress has the authority, they do, it's about having the will to pass the legislation.
EVERY American citizen should be the fruit of a LEGAL American citizen. Only children of people who came here legally should ever be granted citizenship rights. That's common sense. You take the oath, you get in. You don't, you don't.
Yes! Amend the constitution if necessary! This was never what was intended when it was written!
I OPPOSED ALL ILLEGAL immigration, and have no problem doing whatever it takes, on both the supply and demand side, to end illegals.
I favor ENGLISH ONLY in classrooms and public places. I love immigrants: this is a nation built on immigrants, including fine Mexican immigrants---but they assimilated (more slowly in the past than now, but the technology now means they should assimilate even faster than they do).
I like Tom T, and think he made a stupid comment about Mecca---that only hurt us. But his immigration proposals are pretty much on target.
