You're confusing the issues. Those military dependents born overseas? With two US parents and born at a US military situation might even be natural born. Even if they aren't it wouldn't be their citizenship that would be questioned. They'd be in NO chance of being deported.

Do you Cruzers make up this stuff as you go along?

You bring up an interesting point that resonates with me. My brother was born in the Philippines in 1958. Our parents are both natural born U.S. citizens that were there on active duty military duty.

Yet when my brother joined the Navy in 1975 he was notified that he couldn’t get a TS clearance because he was a ‘dual citizen’. He had to go through the court system and file the paperwork to renounce the Philippine citizenship.

Obviously at one point in time Place of Birth as well as parentage had a very real value to the person involved in the resolving of citizenship.

But you seem to say that they might not be a natural-born citizen. What's the deciding factor?
