  And while we're at it?  8 USC Sect 1401 says: 
  
  "a person born in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof;"
  
  I'm sure that if you were to go to the SCOTUS with this, you'd find pretty quickly that being subject to the jurisdiction of the US doesn't mean showing allegiance to. That's a very, very dangerous, slippery slope that would result in statelessness to whoever the out-of-power party is the moment the in-party power hears "I would rather be somewhere else rather than here under YOUR control!" It may sound good to you as a Republican if it's done to Democrats, but I'm sure you'll sing a wholly DIFFERENT tune if/when it's a Democrat doing it to you. :) 
  
  I really hope that gets squashed, because I don't want it done to anyone.
