become a citizen</span> of the United States, naturalizing
immigrants must take a test. Many native-born Americans
would fail this test. Indeed, most of us have never really
thought about what it means to be a citizen. One radical
idea from the immigration debate is the repeal of birthright
citizenship—guaranteed by the Fourteenth Amendment—to
prevent so-called anchor babies. Odious and constitutionally
dubious as this proposal may be, it does prompt a thought
experiment: What if citizenship were not, in fact,
guaranteed by birth? What if everyone had to earn it upon
turning 18, and renew it every 10 years, by taking an exam?
What might that exam look like?</span></div>
