re: #13 albusteve

is there any rationale behind this amendment?…just gift the child with citizenship because of geography?…then what of the parents?…if you support an open free for all with regard to illegal/legal immigrants just say so

I know you don’t like my links, but read the wiki article, trust me its fascinating!
