If one or both of your parent's is an American citizen, your citizenship is your birthright.

What about foreign nationals legally in the country? Where I work, we have a decently large number of foreign nationals that come here for business purposes, some of them for years. They are still foreign citizens, but they have been in the US for a long time, contributing to the goals of the US government, and raising their families within the society. How would your proposed rules account for a child born into such a family?
