Michele Bachmann railed against birthright citizenship at the GOP debate last night, the portion of the 14th Amendment that guarantees American citizenship to immigrants' children born in the United States. The debate has revived the term "anchor baby" a phrase with a history of controversy that often refers to children born of illegal immigrants who are nonetheless granted citizenship.
