I hate to add a post to what I hope is merely pre-election equivalent of red-baiting by Republicans who are trying to invent an issue to run on; the issue of course being xenophobia and fear of brown people. BUT, in case it interests people, below are two articles from different perspectives on the topic:
- Lino A. Graglia, Birthright Citizenship for Children of Illegal Aliens: An Irrational Public Policy, 14 Texas Rev. of L. & Pol. 1 (2010).
- Gerard N. Magliocca, Indians and Invaders: The Citizenship Clause and Illegal Aliens, 10 UPenn J. of Const. L. 499 (2008).
