Evaluate What are the constitutional provisions distinguishing among citizens by birth, naturalized establishing citizenship? Describe the criteria citizens, and non-citizens.

In America, in order to become a citizen, the person has to either be born or naturalized in the country of the United States. A non-citizen; however, is anyone from a different country that does not owe allegiance to the U. S.

There are two ways by which a person can become a U. S citizen by birth: Jus Solis and Jus Sanguinis. Jus Solis is when a person has the right to citizenship for being born in the State or territories. Jus Sanguinis is the right to citizenship when the person has at least one American parent.

Naturalization is the legal process by which non-natives become American citizens. A person who is not a citizen, but wants to become one, has to meet the requirements and go through the U. S naturalization process.
