As many have said, you cannot serve two masters easily, much less three, including God! Dual citizenship should be illegal. If you pledge allegiance to the US, then you should drop your other citizenship yourself, or be made to legally.

Dual citizenship is an oxymoron. You can't have dual allegiance.

Agreed. Years ago, while researching a different aspect of citizenship, I read that the U.S. does not recognize dual citizenship. As part of an immigrant’s naturalization process, they are told/made to renounce any and all allegiance to the country from which they came. However, regardless of that, we know that those with dual citizenship do v**e. The name that comes to me at present is Ted Cruz, though he ultimately renounced his Canadian citizenship in 2014(?) obviously he has v**ed numerous times. Should they be allowed to v**e? In my opinion, no, for reasons alluded to in the opening post.

(Great question Canuckus )

Thank you, Moldyoldy, that’s quite an extensive list. But you neglected to provide your perspective on the premise of the original post.... how ‘bout it?

I am more worried about the ones who only have citizenship in one nation, and it's not this one.

I was unaware that Ted Cruz held Canadian citizenship at any point... Explains why so many southern Canucks (Texans) like him

That is an interesting addition to my question...
I was refering to foreign immigrants to the States who retain their original citizenships...
But the question should apply equally to American citizens who apply for citizenship in other countries as well...
My older sister was born in America (her mother is American... my father's second marriage) and later received dual citizenship via my father...

How do you feel about dual citizenship and v****g rights?

Yeah, he was born in Canada. I like him for his record in front of the Supreme Court.
