Interesting debate, and I can see the argument that with modern transportation systems and medicine, being born in a particular place is not as meaningful as 50 or 100 years ago. 75 years ago one did not just happen to be born someplace while your 8 month pregnant mom was visiting.

Visiting? More like searching for a green card.

The Constitution says what it says. We must not become like the liberals, who treat the Constitution as a "living document", that is, whatever those in power say it means. I am supportive of an amendment to the Constitution that would put an end to the abuse of the 14th Amendment provision that declares all persons born in the United States as citizens. Just because the liberals make up the rules as they go along does not mean conservatives should.
