a parent to be a citizen for the baby to automatically be a citizen.
Most other countries require this.
Does anyone here think that's a bad idea? If so, why?

Without Mexicans will be devastating to the entire economy

votes gets entered in a $10M lottery. 2) Electoral points: each voter
gets to allocate a pool of "electoral points" to whichever candidates

"immigrants"? Seems wrong to me. Puerto Ricans get US Passports.
\_ Yes it is correct.
\_ Thanks! Obama immigrated from Hawaii, right?
