| | United States citizenship - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Most United States citizens are natural-born, meaning they were born in the United States or born to United States citizens overseas. | | | Consequently, naturalized U.S. citizens are not eligible to become President of the United States. | | | The United States Government also insists that U.S. citizens travel into and out of the United States on a U.S. passport, regardless of dual nationality. |

| | A case may be appealed from a state court to a federal court only if there is a federal question (an issue arising under the U.S. Constitution, or laws/treaties of the United States); the supreme court of each state is the final authority on the interpretation of that state's laws and constitution. | | | The United States is a constitutional republic, meaning that its government is composed of and operates through a set of limited powers imposed by its design and enumerated in the United States Constitution. | | | Health insurance in the United States is traditionally a benefit of employment, and in many cases this is mandated by law. |

| | United States "citizenship" is predicated strictly on contract |
| | The Assistant United States Attorney, an agent for the United States Attorney General, proclaimed that the payment of Social Security taxes and the use of the United States Postal Service constituted contracts of "co-surety" that rendered anyone so "contracting" under federal jurisdiction and a subject of mandatory federal income taxation. | | | A United States Government employee is a "citizen of the United States" and must be licensed for almost every activity under the sun. | | | By definition United States and the 50 foreign several States have two entirely different forms of government: a legislative democracy (51% rules 49%), and a republic (the rights of all are protected) under common law, respectively. |
