SoftSport:
The 14th Amendment links with birth citizenship through its Citizenship Clause, which states that anyone born or naturalized in the United States is automatically a U.S. citizen, ensuring citizenship regardless of race or parental status.

Other countries should work hard in making their countries a better place simply.

Mostly targeted at undocumented immigrants and rightly so. However, people also travel to give birth in their US and take their children back home, just to have American passports, with children that grow up later not knowing much about the US and in some cases could harbor anti American sentiments

MrRichmond:
Look into the origin of the 14th amendment.

It was created for descendants of slaves to be recognized as American citizens and have citizenship rights, not for immigrants.

To be more precise, the 14th amendment was created for Black Americans.

Trump outlined what he will do during the campaigns. He was voted by Americans. He is delivering on his promise. Africans and other people with very bad and overtly corrupt governments are the ones complaining.

Even the Nigerian government and politicians dey punish the masses. Northerners will support any Islamic country against Nigeria.

In Nigeria, have you not heard some people told to go to their state? Have you heard of Nigerians threatened even in their own country? Have you not seen Nigerians denied some opportunities in some States because they are wanted there?

Doesnt' mean tho.

There is one program (if you have DSTV) called Gold rush...and one of the stars of the programme is from the Netherlands...and has been in the USA for over 30 years, and has never gone home (he even has an American wife, and children).

He is from the Netherlands, which is a good country and better country, yet, he is in the USA because he wanted to mine gold, and there are no gold mines in his country.

We can make Nigeria a developed country, and a young man would still migrate because there are no opportunites to play baseball here.

It’s crazy how something as simple as “where you’re born” can spark such huge debates, especially when politics gets involved. You’d think the 14th Amendment would be pretty clear-cut, but here we are, still debating it over a century later, what a time to be alive!

SAMBARRY:

By the time Lagosians start with other parts of Nigeria, eye go clear. Continue to encourage insecurity in your states.

The Uk had done this long ago, why is it big deal in the US

Badgers14:
The change is not been done the correct way..

If I recall very well, Ireland had a national referendum and 79% voted in favor, so the constitution was changed.

In the U.S, a constitutional change can't be enacted with presidential order, because president are not kings..

But Trump wants to do it his way,instead of following the proper procedure.. a bill ratified by both congress and senate , then ratified by 2/3 of the individual states..( the last part is very hard to accomplish,that's why Trump wants to go around it)

erico2k2:
Fair enough, all what trump is doing will last just 4 years they all will be overturned, its like writing on sand.
