What requirement would you base American citizenship on if not this? I think that everyone born on American soil is in fact an American. As American as you or I. I do not believe that this should bestow any rights upon the parents though. My view is, the baby stays, they HAVE to go. If they do decide to leave they have the right to take the baby with them if they renounce the baby’s citizenship forever.

The silliest anchor baby case that I’ve ever read about occurred just a few years ago. A South American woman flying on an airliner bound for the United States gave birth to a baby (What the hell was she doing on that plane?) “shortly after” the airliner entered U.S. airspace. Viola!!! Another “American citizen”! Ummm. Houston. We’ve got a problem.

.
And repeal it retroactively. No anchor babies after 1980!

"They come to this country and have babies. . the children are citizens eligible to go to school, receive food stamps and social programs. . the American taxpayers are paying for it," says Republican Congressman Gary Miller.

Real conservatives care about tax payer funding of schools, food stamps and social programs...when illegals is gettin' it.

Anchor-Baby Editorial Ping!

-- "They come to this country and have babies. . the children are citizens eligible to go to school, receive food stamps and social programs. --

Conventional wisdom is that they are also eligible to run for the office of the president. Even those babies that are born under "Birth tourism," and are raised in their parents native land are eligible.

These children should be citizens of their own country not ours.

The author is a legal illiterate.

“anchor babies” as understord by the popular culture were extinguished in 1996 with the immigration reform law.

I used to be the parents followed the citizens child. NOW THE LAW is different. The child citezen follows the parents who are being deported.

Birthright citizenship is legally different from anchor babies.

Also for those, like this clueless author, who don’t know the child citizen has to ACUTALLY LIVE IN THE USA FOR TEN YEARS UPON for THEIR offspring to automatically become US citizens.

this is all at the http://www.uscis.gov website (formerly INS)

What the author SHOULD be addressing is the effort to pass the DREAM act which will turn ALL students, regardless of legal status or citizenship, into anchor babies up to the age of 30. (!)

If you REALLY want a lesson. Greece had TWO illegal alien amnesty programs. Their ecconomy is in the toilet today. (and sombody keeps flushing)

so remember: Anchor Babies and Citizenship are DIFFERENT.
