    If you were born to illegal parents, then technically, you are illegal and the laws may soon be allowed to ship you off to your family's origin. If you were born in another country and have commited a felony offense, then they can revoke your citizenship and have you deported. Under no circumstances can the government take away your citizenship if you were born here legally from parents who were either born here or have immigrated here legally.

    I don't think so. I know someone who was born in the US and spent a good amount of time in another country, but his status as a US citizen was never revoked. He did, however, had to renew his passport in order to go to the US.
