Conservatives may not like the idea that a child born here is a citizen but that is kinda settled, no? And I suspected that was what you were getting at, but, like, you gotta be "born" here, so being here in utero ain't enough. It just seemed a silly "point." Not that I haven't sometimes posted silly things, but you aren't a troll, supposedly.
