"Seeings how I think all illegals should be scooped up with a bulldozer and redeposited back in their country of origin, I would say "No" to their children being citizens."

What if someone's not an immigrant, just visiting from another country, on vacation or something, and they give birth while over here. Still a big fat "no"?

I have never even thought about it.
I would still say no. American citizenship is such a special and privileged thing that it should not be bestowed upon someone due to an accident of timing or the result of illegal actions.

Still a No.

A child should be an American citizen if one of his parents was an American citizen at the time he was born. That's it. Period.
