Should one be automatically naturalized if born in the United States?

You should be automatically naturalized if you are born in the United States.

There are two ways to become a U.S. citizen:

The first type means that anyone born on American soil automatically acquires U.S. citizenship.

The second category refers to people who have become U.S. citizens in accordance with the law.

U.S. immigration law gives the Attorney General exclusive authority over naturalization. The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, under the Attorney General, handles naturalization matters specifically.
