I would rather have the 14th Amendment protect the rights of citizenship than any other qualification, such as nationality of parents or skin color.
Thank you for seeing the point I was making and that my intent was to point out the inherent danger is allowing an avenue for unfettered anchor babies. I was also looking at regions other then Asia and what this could portend in the long term. Definitely not proposing a re-interpretation of the 14th which would not stand up anyway but laws to safeguard long term danger to the US.
