USA Today
The issue of immigration has been a product of debate for much too long. This article is expressing the importance of giving immigration well defined boundaries that will put a stop to the confusion once and for all. Rather than continue to debate, we should come to a common ground that will be as fair and beneficial to everyone involved as possible. The article begins by addressing "the constitution and the fact that citizenship itself is poorly defined and even more poorly understood." Birthright citizenship, a persons acquisition of United States citizenship by the virtue of the circumstances of his or her birth, is discussed because questioning it has become increasingly difficult as the numbers of birthright citizens grow each year.
As the article delves into the history of our country and it's people, the reader is better able to understand where the vague legalities regarding immigration were originally devoloped. To make the changes needed for immigration the supreme court, congress, legislative, and judicial processes would have to come together and form a basic framework for all the factors pertaining to citizenship and immigration. Although this is a process that could take some time, the lack of conflict will be well worth it in the end.
