Who is a US citizen?

The concept of who is to become a US citizen is enumerated in Article 1 Section 8 Clause four of the Constitution. Under this Article the Legislative Branch is given the authority "To establish an uniform Rule on Naturalization... (Article 1, Section 8, Clause 4). NOTE! It is NOT the President, NOT City Councils and NOT even the Courts. It is Congress.

The Fourteenth Amendment is cited as the authority to establish the concept of "anchor babies." here is the relevant text: "Section. 1. 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. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. "

The text is clear and is made explicit by the use of conditions which are enumerated: [Condition 1 born in the United States; or Condition 2. naturalized in the United States] AND subject to the jurisdiction thereof [of the United States]. Anchor babies (babies born to those in the US on a valid visa or babies born to illegal aliens) are not citizens.

Congress must enforce these provisions of the Constitution and not allow either the President or the Courts to subvert them.

Unfortunately, the President is trying to illegally naturalize anchor babies hoping they will save his political party while the US Chamber of Congress is supporting this illegal act of the President to keep wages low.
