It is all about coming up with all the rights that they should in theory be given that will drive the RW Conservatives crazy.

And then they'd say that someone that was conceived in another country, but was born here isn't a citizen.
I admire your effort, but never try to out-crazy a real crazy person.....the real crazy person will win every time.

to a child born here that was conceived outside of the US.
