#2 As noted yesterday, the 14th Amendment makes them citizens, the wording was to protect the freed slaves born in America. It will take a new amendment 2/3rds-3/4th Congress and states to alter that. Or as is popular with progressives 5 out of 9 judges on the supreme court (or one half + 1 of whatever number someone decides to pack it with).

#3 No. It goes back to some Brennan dicta. Simply needs clarification, and that can come in the form of federal legislation subsequently reviewed by the SCT.

And yes, Rubio can't shake his predilections on immigration, which should disqualify him for higher office.

#4 Rubio has always made it pretty clear how he feels about illegal immigration. That's why I'd never vote for him.

#5 Build a wall and hammer any company that hires illegals and the there really won't be many illegals giving birth in the US.
