Previously renounced U.S. citizenship, but has since become a citizen again.



No.  The US will nto allow you to gain ctizenship after you renounce it.  Once you renounce your status as a US citizen, you can never be one again.

Suppose Congress passes a law stating that you can.  Is their a constitutional bar?

In that case you would probably count as a naturalized citizen.

Why?  You are a citizen by birth, a "natural born citizen," you are currently a citizen, and you've been here for 14 years.  I'm not seeing a constitutional bar.

You stopped being a natural born citizen the instant you renounced.   If you regain your citizenship you would count as a citizen by the means you regained it. 

The US takes renunciation very seriously.  By doing so you sever all ties with the US.

Holds dual citizenship.
I don't think the US allows dual citizenship.


Yes we do. I have dual citizenship.

Dual citizenship is rare. 

How did you get it, PADem?
