Multiple citizenship, also called dual citizenship is a person's citizenship status, in which a person is concurrently regarded as a citizen of more than one state under the laws of those states. There is no international convention which determines the nationality or citizen status of a person, which is defined exclusively by national laws, which vary and can be inconsistent with each other. Some countries do not permit dual citizenship. Most countries that permit dual citizenship still may not recognize the other citizenship of its nationals within its own territory, for example, in relation to entry into the country, national service, duty to vote, etc.
Yes, and it should be more than just dual citizenship that is allowed.

yes if they gain citizenship
Yes, there are Americans born to parents who themselves have different Citizenship, there for the child should be able to maintain both citizenship, that of the parents and that of the country the child was born.
Yes, if they are from "friendly" nations
Yes. Since there are all ready laws governing what an immigrant can and cannot do, and processes by which immigrants can legally migrate into the country and acquire citizenship in the U. S. I don't see any problem with dual citizenship. That said, I feel that government service should require US citizenship with renunciation of other loyalties until such time as that service has ended. This would, hopefully, limit conflicts of interest, and provide a legal means for ensuring such if divided loyalties are uncovered as motivation for actions taken.
Yes, unless they have committed an act of terrorism and/or have committed a crime
Yes, but the laws of the citizenship should only apply depending what country they are in.
Yes, but they should only be able to hold dual citizenship with our allied nations.

Only if they are under the age of 18. After turning 18 they should be required to choose which nation to claim citizenship in.
Yes, unless they have commited a crime or an act of terrorism, and should be limited to claiming citizenship from no more than two nations.
No, and revoke their old citizenship.
Yes, unless they have been convicted of a felony.
As long as they are not a criminal in either country and are not claiming asylum
Yes, unless they are running/applying for a job/position where another citizenship could compromise their position.
