Jeb Bush is saying that many illegal aliens are coming here to provide a better life for their children. It’s true that given birthright citizenship, it is in the self interest of Mexicans to come here illegally and then have children. If I were Mexican maybe I’d do the same. Hmm, maybe birthright citizenship, created to give former slaves the rights of citizenship, should be curtailed.
But if people coming to the U.S. are just acting in their own interests, why can’t American citizens act in their own interests and secure the borders? Aren’t American politicians suppose to represent American citizens?
“Aren’t American politicians suppose to represent American citizens?”
They are supposed to. But most of the current ones prefer to represent law breaking foreign nationals. The pay is better.
