A literalist can't help but conclude that citizenship is conferred by birth on US soil.

The courts did not interpret the 14th. Amendment "literally" until 1898, regarding a Chinese man born in the US of legal immigrant parents. Furthermore, the explosion of illegal immigration has been caused by the Immigration Reform Act of 1965. JFK & LBJ opened the flood gates for immigrants and the "anchor baby policy".

Let's not forget this little tidbit either:

"Senate floor manager and Camelot knight-errant Ted Kennedy, D-Massachusetts, assured jittery senators that "our cities will not be flooded with a million immigrants annually." "

Thanks a lot, Ted!
