In American Passport, Country of Birth creates 2nd class American Citizen within Home and Abroad. So please omit this.

Created by Z.C. on October 12, 2015

There are no 2nd class American Citizen mentioned in our constitution. But country of Birth in American Citizens' passport implies that. At home and abroad when we use our passport, they might treat us differently than by born Americans. Our request is to omit Country of Birth from Passport and all other system, and use this information only when needed.
