Is an “anchor baby” a citizen by birth?

Under present law and precedent an anchor baby is not only a citizen by birth, its a natural born citizen.

You can thank a series of moronic Supreme Court decisions elevating jus soli and disparaging jus sanguinis, in total disregard for the views of the Framers, for this particular outrage.

That is the first thing that should be clarified.

Maybe the solution is to no longer allow "anchor babies".

Allowing foreigners to illegally enter our country, and use our medical services for free, and then giving the newborn child of foreign parents citizenship is just stupid.

Yes. By statute. And an anchor baby can be president for that reason.

Were Princess Grace's children citizen when they drew their first breath?
