“the Command in chief of the American army”

Ok, and you’re saying that people born in the United States would not be considered American citizens? They aren’t foreigners. What this is saying is that the President of the United States should be someone born in the United States, not born abroad.

I find it intriguing that a libertarian wants to strip citizenship away from Americans.

If they are here illegally, they are not "subject to the jurisdiction" of the US. They do not fall under the 14th.

Further, various pieces of legislation and court decisions have repeatedly upheld the idea that no one should be able to keep the profits of their crimes.

This should include jumping the border and attempting to defraud the US tax payers as well.

Come here legally and the situation changes dramatically. It's that "non-initiation of force, FRAUD, or theft" thingie that defines a libertarian.

I find it intriguing that a libertarian wants to strip citizenship away from Americans.

How can you "strip" something that was never yours to begin with? If you cheat during a race and are later caught, do you get to keep the awards and trophy?
