“but if I understand correctly, the USA does not for anyone over age 18, they MUST choose. The US certainly does not recognize dual citizenship for elected officials!”


The USA has not required dual citizens to choose for many years. I do not know if they require elected officials to give up a citizenship in another country when they take office. I have never heard of such a requirement.

I am aghast there is NO such requirement for elected officials if true. Words fail me that a citizen of another country may be President. This law should be changed PRONTO. I'm going to have to research this more and start writing all congress critters I can think of.

What a way for an enemy of this country to take over....natural born or not. So in effect, you can be born in the U.S. to muslem parents, be taken out of the country say at 2 days of age, raised in Saudi Arabia to Wahabbists, then come back into the U.S. and run for President as a 'natural born' citizen with the intent to take this country down. And that's just ONE example!

Scarey stuff.
