All you need to know about birthright citizenship

Thanks to Trump we'll be having a national dialog about just who is a US citizen.  While the #FakeNews media will be lying through their teeth as usual there's really just one thing you need to know; when the 14th Amendment was passed it was interpreted by everyone as not giving native Americans born in the US the right to vote.

It wasn't until decades later, in 1924, when Congress passed the Indian Citizenship Act of 1924, that American Indians were legally considered citizens.  In fact over a decade after the 14th Amendment was ratified the Supreme Court ruled that a native American wasn't a US citizen.

If the intent of the 14th Amendment was to grant citizenship to anyone who was born in the US, the argument used by the left, then why weren't American Indians, who were born in the US, made citizens?

The answer is that the whole purpose of the 14th Amendment was to negate what Southern Democrats were doing to deny rights to freed slaves.

The only mention of "anchor babies" in any Supreme Court ruling is in a footnote on an unrelated case by one dishonest, i.e. leftwing, judge.

No matter what you've heard the whole idea of every baby born in the US suddenly getting US citizenship is something that the left has made up out of whole cloth.

When this comes up make sure you are ready to explain why the left is making up things again.
