Anchor Babies

Subscribe to The Ricochet PodcastSubscribe

As promised, this week we present a debate on what popularly known as anchor babies -- the idea that any child born in the U.S.A is automatically a U.S. citizen no matter what the immigration status of the parents may be.

Our debaters: Constitutional law professor and Ricochet podcast host John Yoo and author, lawyer, and columnist Ann Coulter. Not much else to say about this show except do the right thing and listen.

Music from this week’s episode:

Born In The U.S.A. by Bruce Springsteen

The opening sequence for the Ricochet Podcast was composed and produced by James Lileks.

Let's get ready to rumble, EJHill.

    I can't listen at the moment. Is this standard debate rules or Texas Cage Match?

    Standard during the first twenty minutes or so, but definitely cage match once John and Ann got going.

    This clearly calls for a drinking game.

    Suggestions anyone?

    Any time McRib is mentioned to take a shot.
