Really?

Common misconception, but inaccurate.

The children of foreign heads of state, and children of foreign diplomats do not obtain USA citizenship.

And the intent of those who passed the 14th Amendment was never that aliens, especially illegal aliens, should receive citizenship either.

"All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside."

Well, those little babies of diplomats are just out of luck, aren't they? BWAAAHAAAA! Talk about irrelevancies!

Could you point out where your interpretation is supported by the Supreme Court?
