Citizenshipgives Americanscertain rights, including theprivilege of voting, although there has been recentcontroversy onhow someone should be allowed to become a citizen. How should an individual gain citizenship? Most Americans cannot pass the Citizenship tests required by the federal government for foreigners to become naturalized so is our current system fair?Should everyone (Immigrants and those born in the U.S.) have to take a test before they become a citizen?Isbeing born in the United States or having American-born parents enough to "earn" citizenship? Or should citizenship have to be earned through civil or military service?
