We need a SERIOUS overhaul of our citizenship rules.

Simply being born here should NOT make one a citizen.

If the parents are here legally to LIVE then fine, otherwise you are a citizen of the country of your birth parents.

MANY countries do this. This whole, "get across the border and download a kid" think is insane.....

Thats what I was thinking.

Not a citizen if parents are not a citizen? Don't you realize that this will never happen? Heck, in eighteen years, that baby is a prospecive, voting mushroom. Oops, I mean Dimocrat... Gosh, did it again!

Chuck, I need help with the spell checker!
