Now I am a US citizen. My passport says born in Aruba. The years that I was Dominican was erased. I have a hard time getting the new cedula. In DR I am treated as a tourist.
I joke around that if deported I do not have another country to call home.

If your parents hold Dominican citizenship, your father at least and must, then you can demand your Dominican citizenship no matter where you were born at. It's the law and your father's constitutional right as a Dominican citizen by birth.
