Yes. That is why you have an “anchor baby” problem. Two illegal Mexican parents can swim the Rio Grande at midnite. Momma can have a baby right there on the Texas side, 1 minute after getting here, and WHAM—that baby is an American citizen and a natural born citizen, and can grow up to be President some day. Period.

Build the durn fence. Enforce the laws.

parsy, who can’t believe the muddle some people make of this.

A “citizen” by way of the 14th, perhaps. But no way could an anchor baby be considered a Natural Born Citizen. See Bingham’s remarks on the issue as well as both Vattel and even Blackstone.
