Quote by: Voluntary  The can you provide a source to support your statement, "He not only emphasizes citizenship but believes that one shouldn't even be a natural born citizen?" | Rethinking Birthright Citizenship by Ron Paul Quote:
I’ve introduced legislation that would amend the Constitution and end automatic birthright citizenship. The 14th amendment was ratified in 1868, on the heels of the Civil War. The country, especially the western territories, was wide open and ripe for homesteading. There was no welfare state to exploit, and the modern problems associated with immigration could not have been imagined.
Our founders knew that unforeseen problems with our system of government would arise, and that’s precisely why they gave us a method for amending the Constitution. It’s time to rethink birthright citizenship by amending the 14th amendment.
