Nope. But here be the facts, as interpreted and currently law by the nations highest court.
In 2008, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a highly publicized opinion, in Boumediene v. Bush, which makes clear how false is the claim that the Constitution applies only to Americans.
In Boumediene, the court held that it was unconstitutional for the Military Commissions Act to deny habeas corpus rights to Guantanamo detainees, none of whom was an American citizen. If the Constitution applied only to U.S. citizens, that decision would obviously be impossible. What’s more, although the decision was 5-4, none of the 9 Justices — and, indeed, not even the Bush administration — argued that the Constitution applies only to American citizens.
Additionally, in 1982, the Supreme Court rules in Plyler v. Doe, public schools were prohibited from denying immigrant students access to a public education. The Court stated that undocumented children have the same right to a free public education as U.S. citizens and permanent residents. This case has translated to other public entitlements, such as those benefits reserved to the poor.
well even the supreme court is wrong sometimes. thats why congress can overide their decisions if they want.
