This is from the US Dept. of State site, "US law does not mention dual nationality or require a person to choose one nationality or another. A US citizen may naturalize in a foreign state without any risk to his or her US citizenship. However, persons who acquire a foreign nationality after age 18 by applying for it may relinquish their US nationality if they wish to do so."

The US Constitution was pretty good at the start, and has been amended only rarely-usually every thirty or so years there are a couple-to limit the powers of government and expand civil rights. Our Constitution is also very short and broad, whereas Brazil’s is more like legislation. This makes the American amendments extremely important, and not mere minor changes that allow government to function more smoothly. With few exceptions, remove any one of them and you would significantly alter the country, while many Brazil’s 116 amendments are comparatively unimportant. Also, 32 years is a bit short to declare yourselves to be doing “fine”.

Toycat: Says the Secretary of the Navy is not real. FDR: ...

@3:10, the USA doesn't condone it, or recognize dual citizenship, but it allows it. You can't become a citizen of the USA, ie go through naturalization, without giving up your previous citizenship, due to the oath to give up foreign loyalties. However, you can still have two citizenship at the same time. For a natural-born citizen, ie someone who is a citizen by/at birth, depending on the laws of other country of which you seek citizenship from, you can simply apply and gain both. However, if you are a non natural-born citizen, you have to give up your old citizenship, gain American citizenship, and then re-apply/reobtain the old one. The government turns a sort of blind eye once you are an American citizen, and won't stop you, or make it illegal to obtain another citizenship, but it doesn't encourage you either. It does note in the American passport that dual citizenship does complicate things if you get in legal trouble overseas, and can make getting diplomatic services more difficult, that is a form of mild discouragement. But if you have a dual citizenship, say American and Taiwanese, and you enter in via an airport through border control, and you show your Taiwanese passport, you will be allowed to stay visa-free, as a Taiwanese citizen. However, if you present your American passport, you will be welcomed home as a native citizen. If you do present your Taiwanese passport, I think after the 90 days you have to go to a consulate and present your American passport since you aren't an American at that point in time. Also, if you do want to get dual citizenship, make sure the two countries are on friendly terms and are geopolitically aligned, because if there is a disaster, that makes things easier. In fact, depending on the situation, if you actually do need help from your embassy/consulate, sometimes an allied country ambassador/consul, will go instead if needed in a pinch if the primary need is diplomatic protection. This is usually the case in smaller, less developed countries, where your country may not have an embassy/consul nearby, or may not be able to pick you up and provide safe passage.

7:07 Description of the 15th, 19th, 24th, and 26th amendments to the Constitution. 9:05 How many amendments does the Constitution have? "I dunno, ten?"

Secretary of the Navy is real, just not cabinet level :p

This is not a proposal, Andrew, but I am a U.S. citizen and a E.U. citizen (bloodlines gave me the option to add Italian citizenship). Post-Brexit, there is a way for you to be a U.S./U.K./E.U. citizen.... :-) OMG, I wrote this before the end of the video. ROFLMAO

Secretary of the Navy is a real thing just isn’t cabinet I believe.

Your plan to go across the central-East is less cool than going through Utah, Montana, and Wyoming (which are all beautiful). Compare density and significance of national parks (*cough* Yellowstone! Grand Teton, Zion, Arches, Glacier...) and imho the American West is leagues better for a road trip.

Utah is actually is so nice because of all the national parks (Arches, Bryce Canyon, Canyonlands, Capitol Reef and Zion). It's the plains you have to avoid. It's a staple of the west. But South Dakota has Mt. Rushmore, that's something.

“One of you to be my homeless guy” 😂

There are 27 amendments, but the first 10 are part of the bill of rights which was passed around the same time the Constitution was originally ratified. Many of the other amendments are also more of clarifications than actual changes, and some of them are changes to previous amendments.

FYI, Utah has some of the most beautiful geography of all the states. Moab, the Arches, Bryce Canyon, the Great Salt Lake, the salt flats, and on and on. I love driving though Utah. Miles and miles of nothing, followed by bizarre balancing rocks, or other odd scenery.

“One of you can be my homeless person”

Bozeman -> Yellostone Nat'l Park -> Salt Lake City -> Navajo Nation -> Four Corners -> Manhattan Project Test Sites -> Albuquerque. 16.5hr drive plus stops. You will see the natural beauty of America.

We took this in Spanish class for an immigration lesson and I got an 18/20 Edit: the first 10 amendments are our bill of rights and are just called amendments because they were implied, but needed to be guaranteed

You know what ibx2cat, I DO thank you for making this video 😄 Your videos are always entertaining and informative, also that confidence in that last sentence... I never heard that form a youtuber... like ever. So I had to comment. You're the best bro 😘😘😘

Very cool city though, I was stuck there for about 2 days and it's fun to explore -Also there are multiple loves gas stations on the way, awesome fridge magnets for any collection.

Only 17 has been added and one of them was to remove another so technically only 15 have been added.

The judicial branch is the justice system, not the legislature (which would fall under the legislative branch).

You can have dual citizenship in the US even if the US doesn't recognize the other citizenship. My dad was in the US army and met my mother while he was stationed in Germany. I was born in Germany to a German mother so I have German citizenship. Since my dad is a US citizen service member who was stationed overseas, I was born as a US citizen too.

Originally from Indianapolis. Excited to see toy cat, the British Aussie Kiwi American, visiting my hometown! I would recommend avoiding driving through Alabama, but also trying to see "The South" including Atlanta. But if you're tight on time, going up 1-65 hitting Nashville to Indianapolis is a good slice of The Heartland of America. When/if you're in Indy, check out Mass Ave, Fountain Square and Broad Ripple (they're some English and Scottish fare I can't confirm the authenticity on in those 'hoods as well if you get bored of American fare). And you gotta eat a breaded tenderloin when you're in Indiana!

The Mississippi River is the longest/largest river in the US and so big it actually has the ability to fit small US Navy ships in it. There's a few Navy museums in Tennessee and Arkansas which have retired submarines.

I live in the mountains of North Carolina. Western NC is definitely worth visiting. We have Mt. Mitchell (tallest Mtn on East Coast). Asheville is a very cool town and so is Boone. We also have the Blue Ridge Parkway, Great Smoky Mtns, Grandfather Mtn, Craggy Gardens and The Biltmore Estate (largest home in America). So much to see and I only scratched the surface. The Appalachian mountains are beautiful.

You can be a duel citizen under two situations: 1.) you were born in America, and obtained citizenship to another country after, or 2.) you are born on a island that the US and Canada both have, which then you gain citizenship in both

10:55 Aside from Salt Lake City, there is a lot to do in Utah, including arguably some of the best ski resorts in the world and several national parks.
