Liberals don’t bother changing the Constitution. They ignore it.
overturn the constitutional guarantee of birthright citizenship
***********************************************************************
No such citizenship to “overturn”. Constitutional amendments are years long processes.

No mention of the Liberal “War on the 2nd”tm? Shameful.
While they’re at it, conservative candidates ought to be touting the value of applying Mexico’s own immigration policies to those crossing the border into the US. After all, fair is fair, right?
Liberals hate the Constitution; but don’t you dare mess with the only constitution the care about — the 14th Amendment. They’ve been governing by a figment, a parody, of the 14th Amendment, and that alone, for 50 years.
The 14th Amendment needs no change. The term “under the jurisdiction of U.S.” excludes foreigners, aliens and foreign diplomats because they are under the jurisdiction (actually allegiance) of their home country. There has never been a test case on this specific language and I guess it must happen to shut up people who misunderstand. In what Universe would any country allow anyone within its borders illegally or on vacation, etc. to acquire citizenship and mucho benefits by the mere fact of being here?
It’s not even limited to immigration. Try mirroring Mexico on their VOTING laws and watch the fireworks.
The ONLY time the Left wishes to adhere to the Constitution is when the Courts have perverted the language to turn their war-du-jour-phrase 180 degrees.
Funny how ‘...shall not be infringed’ is never read correctly, or ‘Congress shall not make’; but *somehow* the interstate commerce CLAUSE negates the whole of the Constitution’s premise.
