This is a case in which the unknown quantity is preferable to the known. Trump has gone into a lot of depth over 30+ years in regard to the 2 or 3 key things he pounds on the most. Wanna know him better? Check out his website and watch some old interviews. Trump knows his stuff and he's consistent on what's important to him. He's flexible on other stuff. I think he's on the up and up...mostly, just like any of us.

There was never "an anchor thing" IN the Constitution; but then, I'm sure one of your personalities knew that. You should stick to being a f**e psychologist; you suck at being a f**e Constitutional scholar. (This is not intended to diminish your lack of achievement in your chosen field of f**e psychologist; perish forbid! ).
If you will put down the bong for a day or two, I will attempt to explain to whichever of your personalities has the floor what the Constitution, (actually, the 14th Amendment ), and relevant SCOTUS decisions have to say on the matter.

An observation from many year of observing human and almost human behavior and some professional training, education and experience that I don't want to mention for fear your pointed little head will explode with your raging envy. Bite me.

No idea where you live, but if you really believe that the Hispanic people in this country are all legally here you are mistaken. I live in an area where there are a lot of Hispanics and know for a fact that a large number of them are here illegally. You might ask how I know and might think this is somebody's "talking points" but I used to own a business and had some work for me before the e-verify age. Every couple of months they would bring a new id in because they were illegal. They would inform me of their illegal status. There would be no gain for them to tell me they were illegal if they weren't. Just saying.

Glaucon

Loco, You are a very nasty, mean spirited little twit. Your attacks have become uncreative and predictable to US. Trump U.

Glaucon

Not all of the white people are legally here and our white ancestors were certainly not invited in by the people who lived here for us to k**l them and take their land.

Glaucon

What's your point?

gaconservative74

If you read his post he implied that the Hispanics in this country are all here legally and I was disputing that.

gaconservative74

And what is your point? Really I don't care what ethnicity you are, illegal is still illegal.

As it stands right now, Babies born to parents in this country legally at the time of birth are citizens. The problem is trying to extend that to all babies, even those born to wetbacks.

SCOTUS has ruled, as I explained that while children born to foreigners who are in the US legally are citizens, (US v Wong Kim Ark 1898 ) those born to foreigners in this country who are not "subject to the jurisdiction" (wetbacks ) are not citizens. Elk v Wilkins 1884 )

You are a moron, Glaucon. Half of the Indian tribes in this country obtained their land by conquest of smaller, weaker tribes. More than 90% of the i******s in this country are Latino, mostly from Mexico with a growing number from Central America. Your lack of historical knowledge is matched only by your lack of Constitutional knowledge. Surely, somewhere in all those personalities is one who is not a complete r****d.

Loki Loc: Georgia

I imagine the almost human behavior was a self-study. How do you manage to hold onto the notion that I am envious of you? You are a liar, and a f**e. A dilettante with little real knowledge of anything. Why in God's name would I envy a pissant like you? You persist in mistaking annoyance and occasional amusement for jealousy. Don't flatter yourself.

Loki Loc: Georgia

You mean that once more, I pointed out the lack of knowledge behind your pathetic pretensions. Lo siento, dipstick.

Clueless i***t is an accurate description of yours.

Read the 14th Amendment. It consists of five sections. It's author, Senator Jacob Howard of Michigan, had this to say:


http://conservativetribune.com/man-wrote-14th-amendment/


Many have argued that the 14th Amendment infers automatic citizenship upon any person born within the United States, even if the person’s parents are in the country illegally.

This has led to the use of the term “anchor babies” to describe such persons, as the citizenship they are granted upon birth acts as an anchor to keep the family from being deported, despite their lack of legal status.

But that simply isn’t what was intended by the 14th Amendment, as proven by the words of the very man who authored the amendment in 1866, Michigan Sen. Jacob M. Howard.

Howard explained in writing exactly what the scope of the law was when he introduced it, making it quite clear that it was referring to granting citizenship to the recently freed s***es only, not foreigners or even Native Americans.

According to The Federalist Papers Project, Howard wrote, in part, “that every person born within the limits of the United States, and subject to their jurisdiction, is by virtue of natural law and national law a citizen of the United States.”
But Howard continued, “This will not, of course, include persons born in the United States who are foreigners, aliens, who belong to the families of ambassadors or foreign ministers accredited to the government of the United States, but will include every other class of persons.”


One more time, in US v Wong Kim Ark 1898, the SCOTUS modified this to include children born to foreigners who were here legally with the intention of becoming citizens or permanent residents.
