ความคิดเห็นที่ 22
ขอบคุณ คุณ Northernlife แต่ยังขอยืนยันความคิดเห็นส่วนตัวเช่นเดิมว่า เราไม่ต้องยกเลิกสัญชาติเดิม เมื่อทำพิธีสาบานตนในการถือสัญชาติอเมริกัน

DUAL CITIZENSHIP, THE NATURALIZED US CITIZEN, AND THE OATH OF ALLEGIANCE
I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen
from the Oath of Allegiance
The opening lines of the Oath of Allegiance are meant to give the United States exclusive sovereignty over the newly naturalized citizen. In other words, you are a citizen of one and only one country, the United States of America. The idea is that as soon as you take the Oath of Allegiance and become an American, you are giving up your citizenship of your native country.
Naturalized citizens are not legally obligated to give up their citizenship of their native country. The United States has never ordered (as far as we know) any newly naturalized US citizens to present themselves to their native countrys embassy and formally renounce their original citizenship. In the past, the first part of the oath was never a problem because almost all countries took away a persons citizenship as soon as they became a citizen of another country.
Legally speaking, however, there is nothing in the Constitution and there are no past rulings from the United States Supreme Court preventing the United States (via the USCIS and the State Department) from requiring all naturalized citizens to officially renounce their original citizenship to their native country as a condition of naturalization. However it seems very unlikely that this would occur for a number of reasons:
* Even in the aftermath of September 11th, there doesnt seem to be much political support or even political will for implementing such an extreme policy. * Many foreign countries may resist implementation of any such policy. These countries could simply refuse to accept any renouncement of citizenship as a condition of US citizenship, which the US would be powerless to stop. * The rate of naturalization in this country would drop off dramatically and alienate many immigrants, creating divisiveness and polarization in a country that prides itself on being the great melting pot. * More practically speaking, besides the administrative cost of implementing such a policy, the US government is ever so slowly waking up to the fact that there are more benefits in terms of economic opportunities and US cultural expansion than risks in allowing dual citizenship.
The important thing to remember about the Oath of Allegiance is not the renouncement of your original citizenship, which the US does not enforce and permits you to keep anyway. The important thing to remember is the allegiance and fidelity you swear to the United States of America. Thats the power in the Oath and thats why you should display the Oath of Allegiance. It is a reminder of the promise you made to be faithful and true to the United States. The Oath is also demonstration to everyone else of your loyalty and the sworn commitment you made to place America first!
ON BEING A DUAL CITIZEN
As mentioned previously, the United States government does allow dual citizenship. They dont approve of dual citizenshipthey simply tolerate it. You need to understand this distinction so you wont have problems with the US government at the border or abroad at one of their embassies or consulates.
