As do I - now, if you had gobs of money stashed away somewhere and tried to give up that blue passport, just see what sort of trouble you'd wind up getting yourself into!

But do make sure that you always use the blue one to enter the US. I've heard they get real squiffy if you try to enter on another passport when you have US citizenship. Big fines and much trouble from all accounts if they notice.

Yep -- always present yourself to U.S. authorities as a U.S. citizen is the golden rule.

P.S. Don't think any U.S. citizen has gobs of money anymore except the honorable members of our very own oligarchy. And it's plain that the laws of the land simply don't apply to them!
