It's not easy to get an amendment ratified. It takes 2/3's of both the House & Senate, plus 3/4's of the states.
Personally, I'm against it. Not because of Ahnald, but because of the principle involved. I believe if you were born in another country, (unless your parents happened to be there on vacation or something), you're likely to have a soft spot for that country. This might seriously affect foreign policy, trade, etc., etc.
It's a bad idea.

Mr V.
I agree with you for exactly the reasons that you stated. Of course you ought to be prepared to be labeled a rascist, isolationist, red neck for taking that stance.

Isolationist. I haven't heard that one for a while. How much better off we would be (and the rest of the world) if we were at least a little more isolationist.
