I read that entire thing and saved it for reference.
I can only repeat that, if anchor babies exist, there must be more to it than that.

That is the difference between opinion and meaningful fact.
If it is so clear, by what authority is the "anchor baby" thing still with us? Why is the law being ignored? If illegal, why is the illegality not challenged?

[Publius6961]

C'mon all you people, let's get real here. This is serious stuff, and we must make a clear distinction between freepin' opinion, even from a law professor, and actual law as applied daily.

Anchor babies exist and are created daily. Absent Congress clarifying the obvious ambiguities in existing law, or a Constitutional amendment doing so (I don't trust the Supreme Court as far as I can throw them), the reality of anchor babies will continue.

What's hard to understand about that?
Gheeeez!
