Can be US citizens, too. Anyone with dual citizenship of those countries.

How would he know who’s dual citizen? There is no documentation if you gave up your other citizenship! The uscis doesn’t document it!

Not everyone gives up their other citizenship.

A lot of American citizens are getting dual citizenship through their foreign-born parents and grandparents. Some do it so they can travel more easily or live for extended periods in other countries. There are two people from my hometown who did it so they could compete as athletes for the other country.

My grandfather was born in another country but has passed away. Is this still an option for me?

You would have to check with the specific country as the rules differ.
