My opinion on this article is that if they do change the 14th amendment they should be very careful. They may change something important and not know it. Since it takes a lot of time to change something that big it takes time. If they were to change it again they might not be aloud! I think they should keep it the same because its fine the way it is!

The 14th amendment made in 1868 states that, "All persons born or naturalized in the united states," including recently freed slaves are a citizen. Some republicans say that it should be reviewed and others say it shouldn't. The people say that they shouldn't because they don't want it changed. They think it will weaken american value, and wont help with illegal immigration. The review would have to have approval from most of both sides of congress and 3/4 of states!

I'm not quite sure why they feel the need to change an Amendment or the way it reads. You are absolutely right that it takes quite a bit of effort to change, and they might change something for the worse.
