We need to repeal the 14th Amendment which was created after the War of Northern Aggression to address the rights of the Southern blacks who have lived here for many generations. It had absolutely nothing to do with today's Mexicans running across the border.
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.
So now you want to repeal fundamental constitutional protections.
I hope my sarcasm meter is out of order, because it says you are serious.
"Fundamental constitutional protections?" What kind of nonsense is that? The Bill of Rights are Amendments 1 - 10, not 11+. The 14th Amendment was never needed.
Edit: many nations do not have an automatic policy of being their citizen if you are born in their nation. They realized the massive immigration problems that result from that.
The 14th Amendment says that if you are a citizen, the government cannot take away your legal rights, lock you up or take your things without due process, and can't make some people exempt from legal protections. Everyone who is a citizen gets them.
THis is what you want to eliminate?
I am trying real hard to not violate Godwins law here.
Did you not read the very first section of the 14th Amendment which you quoted above?
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.
