The Amendment was passed in the 1800s in an attempt to give the newly freed former-slaves citizenship, not so that people come here illegally, have babies, and gain all of the benefits and advantages that American citizens are awarded.

I do think that he'll lose a lot of the minority vote, especially Latinos, but I think that's wrong because, and I was thinking this when I saw Latino people posting it on Facebook, what's wrong with making people follow the laws to become citizens and enjoy all of the freedoms and benefits that our country provides?

People here already are working, paying taxes, and following laws to provide people with benefits (not just immigrants), so why wouldn't Latinos have to follow the laws and policies of the country to be awarded the money that those who are following them are forced to provide under the laws and policies?

Yes, only children of LEGAL immigrants or U.S. residents should be citizens.
