Natural-born citizens,and Naturalized Filipinos
You are a natural born citizen of the United States if you were born in territory belonging to the United States. You can still be a naturalized U.S. citizen if you weren't born in the U.S by going through legal procedures, but you can never be a natural born citizen unless you born as one. The Supreme Court has never ruled on the exact meaning of the phrase "natural born" which appears is the US Constitution as a requirement for the US president. Persons born in foreign countries with two US citizens as parents are US citizens but it is not known whether they are legally natural born.
I believe that the questioner has their terminology confused. There are two types of US citizenship: NATURAL-BORN and NATURALIZED. Natural-born is what the name implies - they are born in the U.S.. Naturalized citizens are those who were born as citizens of other countries and applied to become U.S. citizens by studying for the privilege and then renounced their foreign citizenship and swore allegiance to the U.S. when they took the oath of citizenship.
There are one way to become a naturalized citizen. A person that was born outside the United States to parents who aren't citizens of the US. Explanations: A child born in the USA from parents who are both already US citizens do NOT need "naturalized". All are natural citizens. A child outside the US if both parents are US citizens is accepted as a US citizen. A child born in a US possession if one parent is a US citizen qualifies for natural US citizenship.
In the US there's no legal difference between natural and naturalized citizens (with one exception: only "natural-born" citizens can be President). Broadly, there are two things that will lose a US citizen their citizenship: 1. Deliberately renouncing it (and even then, you've got to work at it); 2. Committing (and being convicted of) treason.
The U.S. Constitution states that naturalized citizens can not run for the office of President. It is the only office that must be held by a natural-born American citizen.
No- naturalized citizens are not qualified to be President, according to the US Constitution. To be president, the person must be born in the USA. So, yes, they must be a citizen to be president but a natural, not a naturalizedcitizen.
no. "naturalize' means to make natural. A naturalized citizen is who becomes a citizen not by birth but because of legal action that makes him a citizen.
A natural born citizen was born in the country. A naturalized citizen took classes, studied, took the required tests about the country's history, politics, and culture, and took an oath of Allegiance to the new country. Both natural born and naturalized persons are considered to be citizens.
35 years. Presidential candidates must be natural born citizens. Naturalized citizens cannot be president.
Section 2, Article IV of the 1987 Constitution of the Philippines provides that "Natural-born citizens are those who are citizens of the Philippines from birth without having to perform any act to acquire or perfect their Philippine citizenship. Those who elect Philippine citizenship in accordance with paragraph (3), Section 1 hereof shall be deemed natural-born citizens."
There is no such thing as an unnaturalized citizenA natural-born US citizen is someone who was born in the USA.A naturalized US citizen is someone who was born somewhere other than the USA, but chose to become a US citizen. (This person applied for citizenship, lived in the US as a law-abiding citizen for the required number of years, passed the test, took the oath, and was sworn in as a naturalized citizen with the rights and responsibilities as a natural-born citizen.A naturalized-citizen can run for any office except president of the United States.The president must be a natural born ciitizen.
