Dual citizenship

The Supreme Court declares that there are two kinds of citizenship, State and National. Citizens of the United States residing in any State enjoy the rights of both State and United States citizenship. In the protection thereof we look to the National Government if the source of such rights lies in the Constitution and laws of the United States; and to the State government if such rights are based upon the constitution and laws of the State. Dual citizenship does not imply a divided allegiance. While a State commands allegiance of its citizens the paramount allegiance is to the Union.zz Liberty and Union, now and forever, one and inseparable. - Webster.
