Those are only "citizens" because of a weird legal technicality that's a holdover from the civil war era. Most countries don't do that because the incentives it creates are kind of insane and very destructive in practice.

The weird technicality of the clear unambiguous text of the 14th amendment?

Indeed, if your ancestors didn't cross the Bering Land Bridge at least 10K years ago then you're clearly not a native, and should be deported back to your continent of origin ASAP. And if you don't like it then I hope your lawyer can catch up to the trucks hauling you to a distant, deportation-happy district where you'll be processed!

Ah yes. There's no difference between people who founded a country and people who just showed up to one that's already functioning.

People like you are so fucking retarded you are personally an example of why democracy doesn't work.
