""All persons born or naturalized in the United States... are citizens"

"...nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property..."

The 14th defines citizens but it does not specifially define persons. Yet it speaks of "persons born or naturalized" in the US as opposed to person born or naturalized someplace else.

Its prohibitions directed to the states was therefore to include person born or naturalized anywhere. NOT THE UNBORN!

I agree. I'm one of those who happens to believe life begins at conception (despite my previous legal arguement vis-a-vis viability outside the womb).

Therefore, the most reasonable first step is to overturn Roe vs. Wade, THEN let the individual states decide. Remember, that court decision didn't legalize abortion per se, and that overturning it wouldn't make abortions illegal either.

Ask yourself this--would you rather get half of what you want, or none? You're setting yourself up for the none, and all the logic in the world isn't steering you away from that mistake.
