You dont emphasize a word by putting it in parentheses. Sorry. 

 

The most common and practical ways to emphasize a word in writing is placing it in bold, italicized, or underlined wording. 

 

Technically you said "if". But you put "when" in parentheses to imply that's what you really meant. Not to emphasize it. 

Wow.  Really?

The 14th Amendment was adopted after the Civil War to enfranchise former slaves to know their children would be citizens. The senator that authored the amendment  said 

"[The Amendment] will not, of course, include persons born in the United States of foreigners,  aliens, or who belong to the families of ambassadors or foreign ministers..."

It was never intended to be for anchor babies and was twisted over the years. If it goes to the Supreme Court, I would wager birthright citizenship ends.

Come talk to me on the 7th Mr. If (When).

And what would we discuss?  The way you didn't put the month and year after the 7th so it isn't the proper way to understand what you're saying?  How about some other pointless stupidity?

It is written as it is written. It’s plainly clear. “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.” It isn’t just a law, it is the words of the Constitution.

 

And it’s idiotic to think that the Supreme Court is can just overturn the Constitution. You clearly don’t understand a damned thing about what the Supreme Court does if you think they are going to overturn the text of the Constitution itself...

Exactly. They can interpret the Constitution and change laws to make them fall in line with it. They can’t change the wording. It’s amazing how the right is so consistently wrong about damn near everything.
