Huh?

Immigrants are legal residents.  People who visit the country legally or illegally are aliens.

Residency implies a legal status. 

I am not even sure why these anchor babies are given the citizenships, the 14th amendment does not apply to them, they do not reside in the US. I guess American lawyers cannot read.

"Immigrant" does not mean legal or illegal. It's a person who moves to another country.
