Interesting videos [Part I and II] on birthright citizenship. As recently as the 1950s, the US-born children of guest workers [braceros] were not recognized as US citizens. Dr. Eastman of Chapman University Law School asks what happened to change the perception?

In view of this history, it seems reasonable that all temporary visa programs should be amended to clarify that US-born children of H1B and other temporary visa holders are NOT citizens of the United States.

Thanks to Bill Ryerson for sending and CAPS for filming these videos.
