Not a good thing to put a new born under all those yokes.<br />Nevertheless, Who does the President think he is? Does he see himself as a Holy Roman Emperor?<br />Here is what the US should do: selling Citizenship. Hundreds of millions of people would be willing to buy their "rights", as they don't have them in their original countries. Then set up a fund to help out the poor to purchase their citizenship. Obviously, all democrats would be happy to give.<br />The best way to "promote democracy in the World" would be to help people to vote with their feet.<br />Let Trump grant ipso facto US citizenship to all Venezuelans willing to apply, and we will see how the communist dictatorship vanish into the air.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20077444.post-54352465493626055092018-11-05T14:18:07.250-06:002018-11-05T14:18:07.250-06:00Shane, if they're in the United States then th...Shane, if they're in the United States then they're subject to the jurisdiction.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20077444.post-67757225249205454982018-11-05T14:12:57.027-06:002018-11-05T14:12:57.027-06:00You're assuming that the illegal aliens and th...You're assuming that the illegal aliens and their children are "subject to the jurisdiction thereof".
