That's where you automatically become a citizen just be being born here.
Most countries insist on other criteria such as citizen parents.

Wikipedia gives this rule for Britain - "By birth in the United Kingdom to
a parent who is a British citizen at the time of the birth, or to a parent
who is settled in the United Kingdom". I don't know what "settled" means
but here in america you don't even need that.

Here's what wiki says about china - "In general, when a person is born in
China, that person is a Chinese national if he or she has at least one
parent of Chinese nationality, or if both parents are settled in China and
are stateless or of "uncertain" nationality.

Brazil does have a type of birthright citizenship - "Any person born in
Brazil acquires Brazilian citizenship at birth. The only exception applies
to children of persons in the service of a foreign government"

Here's what they say about Japan - "Japan is a jus sanguinis state, meaning
that it attributes citizenship by blood, not by location of birth"

And here's Israel - "If either of a child's parents are Israeli citizens at
the time of birth, then the child automatically acquires Israeli
citizenship by birth provided that the birth occurred within the
territorial confines of the state of Israel."

Look at the pattern. The redistribution has been toward the rich ever
since the 1950.s The rich have been getting rich and the poor
poorer.

You have to stop that drift, make it stable, and undo some of the
crookedness of the Republicans helping hold the average man down while
the rich one picks his pockets.

There was a quite reasonable distribution of wealth in the 1950s.
Everyone could afford a home. Rich people still had their yachts.

I would say that distribution would be a reasonable goal.

Obama is a huge gamble, Hillary is a sure bet for real change to
happen. Obama will need all 4 years of a first term just to figure out
what to do and will make mistakes to slow progress worse yet. Hillary
already knows what to do, that is the real difference here, the choice
if you want real change is obvious.

Barack Obama - Dreaming and hoping for change

Hillary Clinton - Ready for change

Study Puts Iraqi Death Toll at 151,000

151,000 Iraqis Died in 3 Years After US Invaded, Study by Iraq and UN
Health Agency Finds
By MARILYNN MARCHIONE
The Associated Press

About 151,000 Iraqis died from violence in the three years after the
United States invaded, concludes the best effort yet to count deaths one
that still may not settle the fierce debate over the war's true toll on
civilians and others.

The estimate comes from projections by the World Health Organization and
the Iraqi government, based on door-to-door surveys of nearly 10,000
households. Experts called it the largest and most scientific study of
the Iraqi death toll since the war began.

Its bottom line is far lower than the 600,000 deaths reported in an
earlier study but higher than numbers from other groups tracking the count.

Idaho senators block Bush's choice to head ATF
Crapo, Craig concerned government overstepping its bounds on gun control

The Associated Press and Times-News staff reports

WASHINGTON - Idaho's two senators are blocking President Bush's nominee
to head the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, calling
upon the agency to respond to allegations that it's been overly
aggressive in enforcing gun laws.

Those allegations include complaints from a Twin Falls gun dealer.

Republican Sens. Larry Craig and Mike Crapo placed separate holds on the
nomination of federal prosecutor Michael Sullivan, who has served as
acting director of the ATF for more than a year.

Crapo spokesman Lindsay Nothern said the senator's office has heard from
a number of gun dealers, gun owners and others in Idaho who "have
concerns about ATF policies regarding gun sales and even (gun)
ownership. Maybe the federal government is getting a little too
aggressive with people who haven't done anything wrong."

Remember That Mushroom Cloud?

Published: November 2, 2005

The indictment of Lewis Libby on charges of lying to a grand jury about
the outing of Valerie Wilson has focused attention on the lengths to
which the Bush administration went in 2003 to try to distract the public
from this central fact: American soldiers found a lot of things in Iraq,
including a well-armed insurgency their bosses never anticipated, but
they did not find weapons of mass destruction.

It's clear from the indictment that Vice President Dick Cheney and his
staff formed the command bunker for this misdirection campaign. But
there is a much larger issue than the question of what administration
officials said about Iraq after the invasion - it's what they said about
Iraq before the invasion. Senator Harry Reid, the minority leader, may
have been grandstanding yesterday when he forced the Senate to hold a
closed session on the Iraqi intelligence, but at least he gave the issue
a much-needed push.
