The 14th amendment has been grossly misinterpreted. All it was ever meant to do was bestow citizenship on freed slaves and their children.

I’m not a constitutional lawyer but I play one at home. So I’m going to say the word “jurisdiction” framed in the 14th amendment is where you attack the anchor baby problem.

So why was the 14th Amendment not more explicit?
