The U.S. in this case, is the federal corporation the District of Columbia, also known as the UNITED STATES. It was created by the congressional act of 1871. Also see 28 USC 3002 (15) “United States” means— (A) a Federal corporation;

So a U.S. citizen is a citizen of this federal corporation, and not a union State or USA republic. So now it’s easy to see that a U.S. citizen is a legal fiction / U.S. corporation and has no rights secured by the constitution. Only human beings have rights secured by the constitution, not legal fictions. You should have checked off “other” on the form because you are a State Citizen of your State that you were born in, which makes you a Citizen of all states, and one of the people, and a beneficiary of, the republic U.S.A. constitution of 1789/1791. A State Citizen used to be known as a Citizen of the United States before the Civil War, but the meaning has been changed twice for the purpose of fraud. The United States of America is the de jure republic government, not the United States which is the corporation. The preamble to the constitution establishes the United States of America, not the United States. We have Two Different and Distinct National Governments. This treachery has always been the goal of the enemy.
