i’m talking about the law... not that democrats concern themselves with following it these days
However,I have studied citizenship law a bit since I discovered,some years ago,that I'm entitled to Irish citizenship. It's my understanding that not all that long ago many civilized,advanced countries had an "automatic citizenship at birth" policy. However,one by one most of those civilized countries did away with it (including Ireland) and now the US and Canada are the only two left. Of course there are still a number of uncivilized countries that have it...but they don't count.
