Well, Mr. President, exactly which clause of the Constitution are you preserving, protecting and defending by offering citizenship to illegal aliens?

NONE. That is what is so amazing about this. Why is he still out of jail? What would happen to me if I violated several major federal laws in front of many different media and the press?

My butt would be in the pen.

I guess George is “special” you know, above the law.

Round 'em up, and incarcerate them until deportation arrangements can be made. Put a bounty on turning in illegals (much more cost-effective than the trillions amnesty will cost the taxpayers, overall), and the reward may be claimed by ANY American citizen who turns in an illegal.

The U.S. Constitution provides "The privilege of the writ of habeas corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in cases of rebellion or invasion, the public safety may require it.", so these illegals HAVE NO RIGHT TO BE IN THIS COUNTRY, and could be incarcerated until deported to stop the invasion of our Country.

Likewise, NO PUBLIC BENEFITS should be afforded invaders, and a child born in the USA to foreign parents (non-US-Citizens) should NOT automatically be declared a U.S. Citizen, which is the mis-interpretation of the Constitution that was intended for those in this country LEGALLY, not ILLEGALLY.

The tortured reading of the word "person" vs. "citizen" has been wrongfully used to justify the cheap labor that businesses (aka, deep pocket political donors) to keep the flow of illegals moving along in their interest. This will address the anchor-baby issue, and without free medical care, these invaders are rightfully not included in the benefit packages that CITIZENS are paying for, including free educations for non-citizens, too.

In 1866, Senator Jacob Howard wrote, "This will not, of course, include persons born in the United States who are foreigners, aliens, who belong to the families of ambassadors, or foreign ministers accredited to the Government of the United States, but will include every other class of persons." Senator Howard wrote the addition phrase specifically because he wanted to make it clear that the simple accident of birth in the US is not sufficient to justify citizenship.

The 14th Amendment was enacted to cover SLAVES after the Civil War. Clearly, the misinterpretation by the courts over the years has been used to provide BUSINESS with cheap labor, and existing laws were ignored and un-enforced in regards to illegal aliens.

The US Supreme Court recognized this when they ruled in 1873 that the phrase (and subject to the jurisdiction thereof) excluded "children of ministers, consuls, and citizens of foreign states born within the United States." Since the court recognized that the children of foreign citizens and diplomats should not be granted US citizenship, why should anyone think that the children of those that enter the US illegally are subject to the jurisdiction of the US government? The simple answer is no thinking person would. The anchor baby parents are neither US citizens, subject to US jurisdiction, nor do they owe any allegiance to the US. Federal immigration laws require aliens to renounce all allegiance to any foreign government and to support the US Constitution to become citizens. The parents of anchor babies never fulfilled this obligation and were never "subject to the jurisdiction" of the US.

Both the author of the 14th Amendment and the US Supreme Court recognized that an alien mother and her baby are subject to the jurisdiction of their native country - not the US. The 14th Amendment wasn't created to provide an end run for aliens to defy US immigration laws. But politicians have subverted the Constitution and allowed citizenship to any child born in the US. This misinterpretation is not accidental - it is intentional.

"The desire for naturalization is
heartily to be commended where it springs
from a sincere and permanent intention to become citizens,

and a real appreciation of the privilege.
But it is a source of untold evil
and trouble where it is traceable to selfish and dishonest motives, such as the effort by artificial and improper means, in wholesale fashion to create voters
who are ready-made tools of corrupt politicians,
or the desire to evade certain labor laws creating discriminations against alien labor.
All good citizens, whether naturalized or native born, are equally interested in protecting our citizenship against fraud in any form, and, on the other hand, in affording every facility for naturalization to those who in good faith

desire to share alike our privileges and our responsibilities."

State of the Union Address
President Theodore Roosevelt
December 7, 1903
