The problem with that is, first of all, the US Constitution very clearly says that if you're born in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, that you're a U.S. citizen. There's U.S. Supreme Court precedent that goes back more than 100 years directly on this issue [of birthright citizenship].
