""I've lived overseas and I know, to get integrated into a new society, you have to have ID in that society," said Padilla, a Detroit native who now has dual citizenship in the United States and Mexico."

A US citizen does not have dual citizenship. Or has this changed?

As a US citizen, you can "buy" citizenship from Monaco, New Zealand (rather expensive there, you must deposit $1,000,000.00 cash in a NZ account first. A pretty good way to keep out the riff-raff though), Costa Rica, Belize, and a few more. Many extremely wealthy (former) American citizens have taken this one step further and have turned in their PP at American Consulates around the world, to relieve themselves of the responsibility of paying taxes in the US. Clintoon tried unsucessfully to put a stop to this. But there's a lot of wealthy Americans who don't want to go down with the ship.
