I say "NO WAY". If you are born on US soil, you are a citizen. If they change that doctrine, than anyone will be subject to tests in order to become a citizen.

Yes it should be changed. Either the mother or the father of the child should have to be a US citizen or permanent resident in order for the child to be considered a US citizen. If both parents are foreign, then the child should be considered a citizen of their parent´s country. Every other country has this law, why not the US?

I would like to see one small change, and that would be if both parents are illegal, the baby would be given a delayed citizenship offer effective at the age of 18, when they can decide for themselves if they want to live under our laws. The parents have already shown contempt for the law of the land. That should satisfy both your viewpoint and mine.
The lawbreakers should be treated accordingly. If they want to give the baby up for adoption, then I would wave the 18 year wait for the child.

Yes.
Ireland was the last of the EU countries to do away with birthright citizenship, and Canada has done so as well. Do you see a pattern here?
For countries that subsidize education and services for their poor, birthright citizenship has become too subject to abuse.
Why should we be the only such country in the world that retains it?

expertise of the bible and Church doctrine, many doctrines of the church homes are synthetic doctrines with a good number of strings related. to illustrate in my mothers church that's a sin for a woman to positioned on pants to church yet in the catholic church it is not? that's a sin in the Methodist church African episcopal to drink alcohol yet no longer in the catholic church? who's good and what does god different than? Jesus became water into wine at a marriage competition and dranked it on the final supper, properly i think via the Methodist rule hes a sinner or do they no longer be attentive to what they are doing with synthetic doctrines. in a single faith purely one hundred forty four,000 are going to heaven and from that faith and all different religions coach each physique is going different than people who visit hell. i think in a greater potential yet no longer faith or the church homes that coach lies and rob the persons of their desires.this is what led to me to leave, i may well be extra useful off on my own then to be a factor of the whore Babylon.

What they are doing was not the intent of the doctrine and that loophole needs to be tied up nice and tight.

ABSOLUTELY!!!! It should have been done long ago. Anchor babies were not the intention of this law. It is mis-interpreted!

they should change it to ,
"If the mother has legally entered the country and gives birth, then her son/daughter will become a citizen"
if not, then send them back to where they came from.

Just because they are born here ILLEGALLY, does NOT make them a citizen!!!
If you are born in a GARAGE, does that make you a CAR???! NO!!!
If you are born in a hangar, does that make you an AIRPLANE?? NO!!!
If you are born in a MANGER, does that make you the Messiah??? NO!!!
Although, it might make you an @ss!!!

They should change it; Come here legally, then you can have rights. Come here illegally, you don't deserve ANYTHING America has to offer.
