Additionally, some nations, like the U.S. might have laws that limit eligibility for public office by citizenship (The U.S. for example requires by law that the President be a birthright citizen and 14 years of residency within the U.S. prior to holding the office. Most states will also have residency requirements for state offices and seats in congress). | |
