    I'd be intrested in seeing an immigration grand bargain, with amnesty coupled with instituting the proposals of the Barbara Jordan commission from the 90's (appointed by Clinton) which called for less legal immigration, and also a modernization of the birthright citizenship idea to bring it more in line with how many other modernized Western Democracies handle it.

"Modernization" of birthright citizenship is basically impossible. The Supreme Court has made very, very clear what the citizenship clause of the 14th Amendment means, and it means birthright citizenship in no unequivocal terms. You'd need a constitutional amendment to change that definition, and there's no way in hell that would ever pass the Senate, let alone get the requisite states. The Democrats wouldn't tolerate it.
