"Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."
The Thirteenth amendment gave blacks freedom and the 14th amendment gave them citizenship and therefore the right to vote.
There was a time when no person was born in this country and yet people want to repeal the right of citzenship to babies born here. Get over it. Ugh!
