The passport is proof of your citizenship, and you are a ';natural born'; citizen (the courts have never distinguished between ';born'; and ';natural born';) but if you want to know the legal basis that makes you a citizen, here it is:





US Immigration and Nationality Act





INA: ACT 301 - NATIONALS AND CITIZENS OF THE UNITED STATES AT BIRTH








Sec. 301. [8 U.S.C. 1401] The following shall be nationals and citizens of the United States at birth:





....





(c) a person born outside of the United States and its outlying possessions of parents both of whom are citizens of the United States and one of whom has had a residence in the United States or one of its outlying possessions, prior to the birth of such person;


...





PS - I think you can run for President, because the Supreme Court has never made any distinction between ';natural born'; and ';born'; in discussing citizenship. There is no court case or statute or precedent, nor language in the constitution to suggest that the child of two citizens is anything but a ';natural born citizen';.





In a very technical way your are not considered a ';14th Amendment citizen'; because of where you were born, but that only allows congress to say, for example, that your parent must have resided in the US. It doesn't change the fact that you became a citizen the moment you were born.Am i a true u.s.citizen?
Since your parents more than likely filed a Certificate of Foreign Birth with the State Department after you were born, then yes you are a US Citizen.





Not a great speller or punctuator, but definitely a US Citizen.
since you have a passport and you were born on french soil of U.S. and both of your parents are citizens than yes you are a citizen also.
Yes you are a full American citizen.... but you still can't run for president!


But you are as american as apple pie!
If you have a US passport you are a US citizen.
it is simple= you have a US passport? you are a US citizen.
