The "potential" of a human is a poor argument. All it means that it is a potential human, therefore...? You need to add another step to the argument, which you don't have.
It isn't potentially a human. It is a human. The egg and sperm come together to form a human embryo, not a chicken embryo. Every human in America has a right, taken away the rights of the youngest opens up the possibility to take away the right of other age groups.
