--One Reporter's Opinion – 14th Amendment Abuse by Illegal Aliens--

"NEWSMAX --It is this reporter's opinion that it is time to re-examine abuses of the 14th Amendment to our Constitution. It states in part, "All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside." The 14th Amendment is a simple document, drafted after the Civil War to assure that newly emancipated black slaves would never be denied citizenship by the states.

The drafters had no idea that, years later, the amendment would be used to make a mockery of our immigration laws. It was never intended that an illegal alien can cross the borders into our country, have a baby a few minutes later, and then the baby is automatically declared a citizen of the United States.
Automatic citizenship means that the illegal family is entitled to welfare benefits, and illegal alien parents who have children born in the United States are seldom, if ever, deported. These children are called ANCHOR BABIES: They anchor their families securely in the United States." (George Putnam/WorldNetDaily.com 3/25/05)
