The top scorer on Team USA in the World Cup, Folarin Balogun, is a birthright citizen. His Nigerian/English parents were visiting New York when his mom went into labor. He was born in Brooklyn. He chose to play for Team USA rather than England or Nigeria. Do they want us to kick him off of the team?
