How do illegal aliens feel they are eligible to obtain citizenship status?
.
Most do not assimilate to English as the laws state, how would they be eligible?
Illegals are not of good moral standing, how would they qualify?
Do you consider illegal aliens have a favorable disposition of the United States? Do they not prove their loyalties are primarily to their home countries?
How can an amnesty change this since they are not qualifying?

They are told that from a bunch of slave building progressives that will do anything to gain and keep power.
Give your answer to this question below!
Probably because of the American motto that is inscribed on the Great Lady Liberty that greets new immigrants in the New York Harbor.
“Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me.
I lift my lamp beside the golden door.”

Thanks to the Supreme Court,their interruption of the 14th amendment,any one on American Soil has rights. the rights of American Citizens. What is the advantage for being a Citizen of this country? I do think that our forefathers wanted criminals to benefit from our freedom. I think all the free things available to the Illegals Aliens have been put in place to help American Citizens not the scum of the earth. These people sneak in the country breaking a federal law and continue from there. Public housing is loaded with illegals someone is not doing their job, read the document and it states the ss# must belong to a contributing (earning, anchor babies do not qualify person) this is supposed to be for American Citizens. We send all kinds of money out of the is country to help the people of other countries, now we are doing it in this country and we can’t take a deduction for a charitable donation.
I’ll agree with your premise, however I just wanted to point out that your definition of U.S. citizenship is not correct. The 14th amendment does not provide U.S. citizenship to people born within the United States.
There is a very important AND that you are missing. It is this and, that most liberals wish they could erase, and that the Supreme Court has pretended doesn’t exist.
The citizenship clause of the 14th Amendment reads:
“All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and the State wherein they reside.”
“AND SUBJECT TO THE JURISDICTION THEREOF”
Well what does that mean? If you really want to know just ask the man who wrote the 14th Amendment.
Senator Jacob Howard proposed the 14th Amendment to the senate in 1866 and discussed it’s meaning during open sessions of the senate.
He elaborated that simply being born on U.S. soil does not make you a citizen, but rather your complete and total allegiance to the United States coupled with your birth location is what makes you a citizen. He goes on to talk about “anchor babies” and how they are born from parents who have an allegiance to a foreign power, which prevents them from being citizens or giving birth to citizens.
In Senators Howard’s time, the senate was more concerned with Native Americans, and Senator Howard pointed out to the senate that while Native Americans were born on U.S. soil, they are not considered U.S. citizens.
To put this into modern political terms, I’ll give you what I believe is a clear example that liberals and the Supreme Court probably don’t want to acknowledge.
Sir Nigel Elton Sheinwald is the current British Ambassador to the United States. He wifes name is Julia Dunne, and they have three sons together. As Ambassador, Sheinwald and his wife make regular visits to the United States. What if during one of those visits, Julia gave birth to a son, on American soil, in an American hospital? Do you think that child would be an American citizen or a British subject?
Anyone who thinks that he is an American simply because he was born here is seriously kidding themselves. Not only that, but I would bet that the Queen would like to have a chat with you…
Perhaps over some tea…….
