No, it does not. Or to be specific, not only. Under the Constitution, all persons born or naturalized in the United States are citizens of the United States and their state.
It is also established by law that the children of American citizens are citizens. Either condition makes you a citizen. It most cases both conditions apply. But all it take is one.
Incorrect.
Being born in the US is not the only requirement. You must be born in the US of parents who are under the jurisdiction of the US (ie: can be called for service).
This was discussed by the author of the 14th amendment. specifically, they didn’t want citizenship tourism where a pregnant couple could fly over, squat out a kid, dub it American and fly home.
the parents had to be under the jurisdiction of the US. this covers US citizens as well as foreign nationals that are emigrating to the US LEGALLY, thereby placing themselves under the jurisdiction of the country.
As illegals are not emigrating legally, they are still under the jurisdiction of their home country. Therefore, their child born at 1600 Pennsylvania ave... does not have American citizenship but retains the citizenship of the parents.
a subtle difference most Americans never have to think about.
