One can say “The Constitution needs to be amended and we need a change in the 14th amendment.”
That is the RIGHT way to say it.

the right way for what5 ???
amend the 14th Amendment to what ???
The 14th does not give illegal aliens any right to citizenship at birth...
If the illegal alien parents are from Mexico then the new baby born here is Mexican..a citizen of Mexico...
Just as Ted Cruz, the child of American parents, although born in Canada was an American citizen at birth...
Seems pretty straight-forward to me: "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside."
If the illegal alien parents are from Mexico then the new baby born here is Mexican..a citizen of Mexico...
Regrettably, you are mistaken.
Regardless of where the parents are from, or the circumstances of their presence on American soil, a child born on American soil is an American citizen.
That judgment is based on a SCOTUS decision regarding the 14th Amendment.
Consequently, it will take a SCOTUS decision or a Constitutional Amendment to change it.
You are correct that the children are also Mexican citizens at birth, due to the nationality of their parents. But, the fact remains, they are also American citizens by virtue of their birthplace.
