Most of the Mexicans here are here legally

No, they're not.

The well established number is that 50% of them are either illegals or the descendants of illegals.

Treating the children of illegals as Americans has no basis in law and has never been adjudicated, because they were terrified of what would happen.

If the Obama court stays in power that might change. But there is no credible world where illegal aliens decide who the citizenry of the United States will be simply by squatting a kid on U.S. soil ten minutes after stepping across the line.

And those who came legally, they're "immigrants", they are "the Americans"? Really?

Here's a simple test of who they are: Declare War on Mexico tomorrow morning. Then declare a Draft to fight the war.

Let me know which side they all end up on.

Yes they are.

There children are Americans at birth thru birthright citizenship. It is the current law of the land as much as you or I might disagree with it.

The U.S. Supreme Court has held that the U.S.-born children of permanent resident aliens are covered by the Citizenship Clause, but the Court has never decided whether the same rule applies to the children of aliens whose presence in the United States is temporary or illegal.

Some eminent scholars and jurists have concluded that it is within the power of Congress to define the scope of the Citizenship Clause through legislation and that birthright citizenship for the children of temporary visitors and illegal aliens could likely be abolished by statute without amending the Constitution.

I work with a woman who said her mother was “visiting” from Mexico and gave birth to her here. I asked her if that was the case, why didn’t her mother return to Mexico, with her, when her vacation was over. She hemmed and hawed, and then said Reagan’s amnesty of 1986 allowed her to stay. I know for a fact that this woman is 40 years old, so I told her that it sounded like her mother took an 11 year vacation; but that, in any event, if she was really just on vacation, why did she never return to Mexico? Or was her vacation the most extended vacation in history. She squawked back at me in Spanish an walked away. I tell you, I fully expected HR to show up at my desk after that. Hell, it still may. There is no statute of limitations for violating PC.
