Editor's Note: The following report is excerpted from Jerome Corsi's Red Alert, the premium online newsletter published by the current No. 1 best-selling author, WND staff writer and columnist. Red Alert subscriptions are $99 a year or $9.95 per month for credit card users. Annual subscribers will receive a free autographed copy of "The Late Great USA," a book about the careful deceptions of a powerful elite who want to undermine our nation's sovereignty.

Medical tourism has taken a new twist, exploring opportunities for noncitizens to obtain "birthright citizenship" for their babies by taking vacations to the United States with the chief goal of having them in U.S. hospitals, Jerome Corsi's Red Alert reports.

"Since 2003, more than 12,000 Turkish children have been born in the U.S., giving them instant citizenship, under the 14th Amendment," wrote Dave Gibson in the Examiner. "They are part of a growing trend known as 'birth tourism.'"

Flourishing in countries like Turkey, companies in the birth tourism business are able to arrange trips to U.S. cities like New York, Los Angeles and Chicago at a price ranging from $25,000 to $40,000, all for a package that includes the flight, city tours, living accommodations for several months and hospital expenses.

"Birth tourism relies on the lax interpretation of the 14th Amendment that Hispanic immigrants entering the United States through Mexico have used to argue Hispanic children born in the United States to illegal immigrants are 'birthright citizens,'" Corsi explained. "The 14th Amendment to the Constitution was ratified in 1868, and its purpose was to make sure citizenship rights went to the native-born African-Americans whose rights were being challenged because they were recently freed slaves."

He wrote that because hospitals issue birth certificates for every baby born, and birth certificates are key documents needed to get other official documentation, including driver's licenses and passports, birth in the United States has been the backdoor for illegal immigrants to get their children rights of U.S. citizens.

Mark Krikorian, director of the Center for Immigration Studies, estimates that one out of every 10 births in the United States is to an illegal-alien mother. He points out that consular officers are not permitted to turn down a visa application simply because a woman will soon give birth.

Red Alert reports that each year 400,000 pregnant women enter the United States specifically to take advantage of birth citizenship opportunities.

To learn more about "birthright citizenship" and the trend of "birth tourism," read Jerome Corsi's Red Alert, the premium, online intelligence news source by the WND staff writer, columnist and author of the New York Times No. 1 best-seller, "The Obama Nation."

Red Alert's author, whose books "The Obama Nation" and "Unfit for Command" have topped the New York Times best-sellers list, received his Ph.D. from Harvard University in political science in 1972. For nearly 25 years, beginning in 1981, he worked with banks throughout the U.S. and around the world to develop financial services marketing companies to assist banks in establishing broker/dealers and insurance subsidiaries to provide financial planning products and services to their retail customers. In this career, Corsi developed three different third-party financial services marketing firms that reached gross sales levels of $1 billion in annuities and equal volume in mutual funds. In 1999, he began developing Internet-based financial marketing firms, also adapted to work in conjunction with banks.

In his 25-year financial services career, Corsi has been a noted financial services speaker and writer, publishing three books and numerous articles in professional financial services journals and magazines.

This makes me VERY angry. When is anybody going to look at this matter very seriously and stop this abuse?

More and more I see the USA not as a country but a bad joke; just a kind of mat where anybody can come here and clean their dirty feet, taking advantage of what the good and law abide citizens so painfully built.

Is there any way WE THE PEOPLE can stop this?

Please can anybody there answer me and give me a good night sleep?

It is complete insanity, isn't it? The American people are being forced to not only witness the destruction of their country, but to also fund it with their hard-earned tax dollars!! Mind-blowing.

Too many Americans only recently woke up to this madness. And of those who are aware now, some are still too afraid to speak out and fight this publicly, because of the RACISM BS accusations.

My two cents on what is needed:

In order to stop it, Americans will HAVE to:

1. Get actively involved in changing things at a local level - city, county, and state. Do it NOW, not tomorrow, because time will eventually run out. There might be a local organization where you live, or you could start one, or start a local branch of an established national organization.

2. Make sure you know exactly where all political candidates stand specifically on illegal immigration. Support the right ones both financially and with time, to get them elected. (One does have to be careful about reading between the lines of their words. They know full well most Americans are against amnesty and birthright citizenship, so some will try to make it sound like they are also against these things, when they're not. ALIPACers can help interpret the true meanings of their words, and can maybe help with research on their past voting records and/or affiliations.)

3. I think one of the most important things is Americans who want to save our country need to be willing to ignore the pro-open borders crowd's attempt to make this about racism. The open borders lobby has used it because it has worked well - in the past. it has worked to silence any opposition to their agenda. They will continue to use it as long as it works, why wouldn't they?

All Pro-enforcement people need to recognize the racism accusation for what it is: the open borders lobby have no good way to justify this insanity, so they just try to silence us with that. The racism accusation just means the pro-enforcement person is winning the argument. Do NOT be silenced by it, do NOT be intimidated, do NOT stop working towards true reform, which is Comprehensive Enforcement Reform, no matter what they say.
