Do you believe foreigners, non US citizens, have rights under the United States constitution?

Well, the position of the Founding Fathers was that those rights were innate, not GRANTED by the Constitution, but recognized. Under that paradigm, it’s hard to see why God would give rights to an American he didn’t give to an Italian. But even if so, that doesn’t make it the job of the US government to make sure the Italian’s rights don’t get violated.
