Or drop an anchor baby and ask to stay to protect the new American citizen.

The anchor baby issue is an issue I debated on one thread a while back. It is my position that the 14th Amendment does not consider an illegal alien as "subject to the jurisdiction thereof". For example, despite the 14th Amendment, American Indians did not acquire citizenship until the Indian Citizenship Act of 1924 because they were not deemed to have met the "subject to the jurisdiction thereof" clause.

Until the Supreme Court rules on a case and agrees with me, the Guest Worker "anchor babies" could still be kept to a minimum because only the actual workers, and not their families, would be allowed in the U.S.
