Folks:

I have applied for US citizenship. I would like to be candidate to become president in my home country next year.

My country accepts dual citizens to run for office.

Can a US citizen (dual citizen) be President of a foreign country without loosing his citizenship ?

What about being minister or prime minister ?

Thanks for your help.
 
You're going to run for office and you're asking for advice on this forum???????? Haha.

I think if anyone will have a problem with that, it'll be your other country. Check with them.
 
You could have problem with US citizenship as working for govt of countries that US does not consider friendly can be grounds for citizenship removal. Check USCIS website for more info. Also for something like this, you may want to consult lawyers
 
The reason why I decided to run for office is because I want to americanize my home country. I will talk to an immigration lawyer to find out about it.

My country has no problem with US. We are not in the dark list.
 
Jamaica recently passed a bill forbidding it's citizens with dual citizenship (Jamaican and other) from running for office. I am not sure about other countries, however the US won't care unless it's one of their enemy countries
 
I'm sure the list is much longer than that. I mean, Russia and China would probably be on it, not to mention most Muslim countries, eh?
