This could be a constitutional debate in any country. The us constitution is the least problematic in this respect though. So here is the problem thesis.
Citizenship was invented by Ancient Rome, to secure certain birth rights and obligations to Roman born people of the empire.
Tenancy was invented by warlords, to secure taxation rights over people by reducing the mobility of people.
Do you observe that in the 21st century, most citizenships, especually the European ones, are gradually being turned into tenancies? This started in the 20th century, when personal taxation was introduced, and now this is the single definitive factor in people's lives all over the western countries. Very similar to medieval tenant taxes.
