They are considered a citizen from birth. Depending upon the location of birth, and/or the citizenship of their parents, they may have an option as to what country they are a citizen of up to the point they become an adult, usually 18 or 21, being duel citizens up to that point.
One way to be declared a citizen by birth is if you are born in a country that follows jus soli (right of the soil) citizenship, which grants citizenship to anyone born within the country's territory. Another way is if you are born to at least one parent who is a citizen of a country that follows jus sanguinis (right of blood) citizenship, which grants citizenship based on descent.
"In most cases, one is a U.S. citizen if both of the following are true: # Both parents were U.S. citizens at the time of the child's birth # At least one parent lived in the United States prior to the child's birth." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_nationality_law
It can be used as an ID and to prove where you are born and in most cases to prove that you are Citizen of a specific country.
Nationality can be acquired through birth in a country, descent from a citizen, marriage to a citizen, or through a legal process like naturalization. Each country has its own laws and criteria for determining who is eligible to become a national.
Citizen Cope's birth name is Clarence Greenwood.

Yes, as long as you are a U.S. citizen from birth. For example, if both of your parents are U.S. citizens and you are born while they are on vacation overseas, you are still a U.S. citizen from birth.
Any US citizen is free to enter the US at any time. However, this US citizen child who hasn't lived in the country will need to have some documentation which proves his or her citizenship, such as a passport or birth certificate.
There are two effective ways to gain U.S. citizenship at birth: have either (or both) of the parents be U.S. citizens, or be born on designated incorporated U.S. sovereign territory. The first method is sufficient for citizenship according to current U.S. law (US Code Title 8, Section 1401), and the second method is proscribed according to the 14th Amendment. In both cases, the child qualifies as a "natual-born" citizen, and is eligible to run for the Presidency. As the question stands, the answer is an obvious YES, as the mere fact that a parent was a U.S. citizen provides citizenship to the child, and the location of the birth is irrelevant. On a related note, however, as foreign U.S. military bases are NOT considered sovereign U.S. territory (unlike U.S. Embassies which are, though Consular Offices are not), children born on-base are NOT eligible for automatic U.S. citizenship via the 14th Amendment. Thus, if a foreign worker gave birth at the U.S. base's hospital, the child would not be a U.S. citizen.
