and yet, the language couldn't be more clear that the parents that snuck across are not citizens,. also weird.and yet the language couldn't be more clear that those born here are citizens. weird.In the same light does the 14th say that illegals can sneak in and create citizens?When the africians were freed thy were not citizens. It was so that their children would be citizens. The africians didn't sneek in here pregnant
That was a primary intent of the 14th Amendment not to let someone born here as a result of his/her parents sneaking in and committing a crime.
Despite of course- the 14th Amendment saying no such thing.
I think the intent was to make the slaves citizens. don't think there was ever consideration for Mexicans sneaking in.
guess you'll have to propose a new amendment.
No one is arguing that the parents who snuck across the border are citizens.
Don't even know why you mention it.
