This is what you get with Rubio/Conda!
Some tried to do away with the anchor baby situation and this is what they were met with!
[I]n recent days, former aides to both Vice President Dick Cheney and President George W. Bush, who pushed for comprehensive immigration reform, have condemned the calls by top Republicans to end birthright citizenship.
Cesar Conda, who served as domestic policy adviser to Cheney, has called such proposals offensive. Mark McKinnon, who served as media adviser in Bushs two presidential campaigns, said Republicans risk losing their rightful claim to the 14th Amendment if they continue to demagogue the issue.

I have become increasingly convinced that most Republican and Conservative opposition to interpreting the Constitution and the 14th amendment correctly is based on their belief that this will alienate potential votes. In other words, they are more concerned with what is good politics rather than what is the truth.
They honestly don't care about what is both common sense, and what is the actual truth, provided they can use the existing confusion to milk votes. They are motivated by expediency and pragmatism rather than accuracy or principles.
