Who decides if someone can become a US Citizen?
There is no single person who makes this decision; it's a bureaucratic process. Any person born on US soil is a citizen by default. Any person who is a legal resident alien can make an application to become a naturalized citizen, and if the application is approved and the person fulfills the requirements they are a citizen. People can become citizens if they are married or related to current citizens. In certain cases people are granted citizenship for humanitarian reasons - usually if there's a credible threat to their lives if they return to their native land. There are restrictions placed on who can become a resident alien - quotas that prevent mass migrations from impoverished nations, screenings to weed out dangerous criminals, and the like - but aside from that the process is largely a matter of crossing T's and dotting I's.

Not until they have become naturalized citizens. Truthfully, there were times in our past history when foreigners encountered discrimination, and roadblocks were put in front of them if they wanted to be citizens. But these days, there are many more opportunities for legal immigrants, and it is certainly possible to become naturalized; many legal immigrants decide they want to do this. Once a foreign-born resident of the US passes the citizenship test, that person is considered a citizen; they can vote, run for office (any office except the presidency), and participate in civic life as if they were born here.
