Context
Citizenship confers duties and privileges that distinguish it from legal residency. The Constitution reserves voting and congressional office for citizens, and federal law requires citizenship for jury service. Naturalized citizens enjoy the same rights as native-born citizens, with one exception: only natural-born citizens can become President or Vice President.
