I thought this was in there too but not necessarily. 14th was written to protect the slaves from state laws prohibiting their citizenship and the birthright clause is not stated as we interpret it today. Eliminating the anchor baby privilege is just reigning in the US policy. However past precedent is a powerful force in a court of law.
