Now this is an old law and many have been changed in the act. I reject it and this same law makes citizens out of resident of Puerto Rico and other "territories" of the US, which I also reject.
If this act has legitimacy then we can change it and we must. We must reject the US citizenship of anyone not born of two US citizens. And as a political matter I do that now already and their descendants as well. This has got to stop.
