Rand Paul is not a politician. He is a doctor running for office. Good for him. Forget the politicians.

Editor's notes: in a story written for and found in the Left leaning The Hill, we have the news of Rand Paul calling for a Consitutional amendment dealing with children born in the country to parents who are illegally in this country. This is an election year and Paul is a leading contender in the race for Senator in Kentucky. to Leave it to the Lefties to make a big deal out of this - to brand Paul as some kind of evil Hitler type. He is a libertarian/Republican. As you read the article, ask yourself this: what is wrong in questioning the matter in the courts. What is wrong with seeking an amendment (talking about the process). Personally, this editor believes that such an amendment would not be approved but, certainly, there is nothing wrong in trying.

THE HILL by M. O'Brien: Kentucky GOP Senate candidate Rand Paul said Thursday he would support amending the Constitution to deny automatic citizenship to children born in the United States.

Paul, the libertarian Republican nominee for the Senate who's also the son of Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas), said courts should review the 14th Amendment to the Constitution, which guarantees citizenship to "all persons born or naturalized in the United States," to determine whether or not it should apply to the children of illegal immigrants.

If those court challenges fail, Paul said in an interview with the conservative blog Right Wing News, then he would support an amendment that would have the effect of denying citizenship to children of illegal immigrants who are born in the U.S.

"But the 14th amendment actually says that you will be a citizen as long as you are under the jurisdiction of the United States," Paul said. "Many argue that these children that are born to illegal aliens are really still under the jurisdiction of the Mexican government."

"I think we need to fight that out in the courts," he added. "If we lose, then I think we should amend the Constitution because I don't think the 14th amendment was meant to apply to illegal aliens. It was meant to apply to the children of slaves." READ THE FULL ARTICLE >>>>>

More notes: understand that the amendment process includes a 2/3 vote in both the Senate and the House and a ratification process that requires the approval of 3/4 of the states. . . . . . . . . ain't going to happen with this issue. What the readership must know is this: the Left only uses "constitutional law" to further their anti-constitutional agenda. They really do not care about representative government, the will of the people, or the Constitution as framed by the Founding Fathers. The past 17 months has proven this to be true.
