With some exceptions in case law for diplomats
___________________________________________

When you see a foreign diplomat sue the US for granting citizenship to the anchor babies of illegal aliens while denying the children of persons invited here to represent their country, then you can say again what you tried to say..

But foreign diplomats know that illegal aliens cant claim American citizenship for their children either...

What are you arguing about precisely? Is there currently birthright citizenship or not? Do you think the US Supreme Court would be willing to find a law constitutional that overturns birthright citizenship? Yes or no. Simple as that. The answer by the way is no, they would not.

As to your foreign diplomats point, err, what is it? The law is as follows:

"All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside."

Foreign diplomats children are not considered under the jurisdiction thereof, which is why they are not given citizenship.

Your argument is with the court. The Supreme Court doesn't agree with you. Either get a constitutional amendment or change the court justices. The latter will be much easier.
