Everyone down voting this clearly hasn't read the 14th amendment and thought about all the ways you could interpret "...and subject to the jurisdiction thereof..."
I'm not saying I agree with it, it's easy to see how you could intentionally try to spin that to mean essentially "...under the legal jurisdiction thereof..."
And who ultimately decides what the "correct" interpretation is? Not you or me...it's the Supreme Court
