The 14th amendment states all those within the Jurisdiction of the United states are covered by the equal protection clause.....you are right..it WOULD take a constitutional amendment to change that

Nice try. The 14th Amendment was intended to apply to former slaves. It was never intended to provide sanctuary to an illegal invader. By your logic, an invading Japanese or German soldier would have been protected by the Constitution. We need to legally classify illegals as invaders with no rights and be done with it.

And the poll is kicking your ass.
