Not enough time during the day to study a 46-page in-depth article, but a browse thru, I found cause to search for the legal definition of domicile or parental domicile, which I did not find within.

I wonder if using it for the topic, though, is kind of grey.... if a domicile can be argued to be where one sleeps or “lives” or pays a utility bill, then even motel-born criminaliens could have legal citizen babies.

You have put your finger on the problem. Domicile is a matter of intent as well as residence, that is, the facts must show some indicia of an intention to live permanently. That means that every case is a factual case and that raises infinite problems of adjudication and bureaucracies. If we have tens of millions of illegal aliens in our midst and many of them are giving birth on a daily basis, how is this to be adjudicated? Who will pay for the process? Who has the burden of proof?

The other suggests practical ways that this administrative nightmare can be managed.

My problem is a statistical one, I suspect the drive-by tourism babies are the smallest part of the anchor baby problem with "domiciled" illegal aliens throughout the country. If this is so, we have no solution that brings practical relief except to remember that chain migration is not constitutionally mandated just because domicile creates another anchor baby.
