As previously mentioned, this has not been tested as it should and most definitely time to test and clean up the murky waters of immigration.

There's nothing murky about it. It's been understood and taught since long before i was in school that if you're born in the United States, you are a citizen of the United States. This is not rocket science, and it's only on the table because Trump is trying really hard to become a dictator. If you want to change the Constitution, you amend it. Allowing the Constitution to be changed based on the whims of the President in power is the sort of precedent you'd expect to see out of Russia or North Korea, not the United States.

Says you. Immigration has a ton of grey area which is why there has been so much round and round about it. The last few Presidents have pushed to test the true intent and limitations, not just this one. To amend it, don't you think it needs to be tabled, tested, and defined prior to? How would you even know what needs to be adjusted or redifined? Once again, your bias is showing. Pretend like this is Obama, Bush, or Clinton and look objectively. There is an issue and has been an issue with the immigration system. As someone that has traveled the world, it amazes me how swiss cheese-like our system really is compared to most others.
