Default Huckabee shakes up immigration debate.

"Mike Huckabee wants to amend the Constitution to prevent children born in the U.S. to illegal aliens from automatically becoming American citizens, according to his top immigration surrogate — a radical step no other major presidential candidate has embraced."

May Allah have mercy and speed his implosion.

Immigration is an extremely difficult issue, and I'm not completely satisfied with anyone's position on it (although Romney's position seems pretty good), but what's the deal with wanting to amend the constitution all the time? It's madness that Huckabee is leading in national polls right now.

FYI, Huckabee is denying the story.
