"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."

Many argue that illegals are not subject to the jurisdiction of the US (unless the perform an illegal act) for which they would be prosecuted. Otherwise they are subject only subject to deportation and then the laws of their country.

Could this be a matter of interpretation and intent?
