Ron Paul is Unhappy with the Constitution

This one comes from Talking Points Memo. It's a mailer that's being sent out by the Ron Paul Campaign, detailing his six-point plan involving immigration. One of my friends saw this and responded by saying, "It took me a while to realize that this was supposed to make me want to vote for Ron Paul."

Ron Paul would like to make it clear that he will put an end to birthright citizenship. Somewhere out there, Dred Scott is rolling over in his grave. We live in a country where if you're born here, then you're a citizen, period. It doesn't matter who your parents are, it's not like you had much control over who your parents were anyway. You don't get to go around changing the rules just because it's a race of people who you don't like.
