the 14th says that they must be born in the US, and be subject to the jurisdiction thereof. Should be an interesting court battle. The SCOTUS has determined that there are only two situations in which the jurisdictional elements come into play:

a) Children born to parents with diplomatic immunity from a foreign government
b) Children born in a part of the United States under foreign occupation in wartime
