because we're ruled by a bunch of #*$s and he refused to take the oath of allegiance

So, what do they mean by passport? Is it something different than what we call passports? Why would you have to take an oath of allegiance to get a passport?

Maybe I wasn't aware that those who aren't Americans can apply for American passports. If they weren't born in America but are American citizens, then it wouldn't matter.

No, but they are still citizens of whatever country they came from so they could still obtain a passport from that country. Maybe that's what I was missing. He immigrated but didn't become a British citizen???? That would make sense. (lightbulb comes on)
