I've long thought that any immigration reform should include provisions granting citizenship to a child born here only if the mother and/or father is a citizen. It doesn't make sense that a child is a citizen just because they happen to have been born here.

That's probably the first thing you've written that I've agreed with. The problem is that liberals want citizenship for everyone and right now they're running the show.
