Hi,
My great-grandfather and great-grandmother were Italian citizens and later came to america.

Is there any way I can claim Italian citizenship if I was born in america and am currently 27?

My humble request is this. Be where you are and don't make any risk.
Here is a peace to ponderover before you decide your future.

"Berlusconi is Italy's richest man, a media mogul who now controls 90 percent of the nation's broadcast media and much of its print media - newspapers, magazines, and book publishing - as well Italy's top sports team, the nation's biggest financial services firm and a vast portfolio of other holdings. His first term in office ended in a welter of corruption indictments; his second has been marked by heavy-handed media manipulation and a shocking use of his parliamentary majority to craft laws exempting him and his cronies from ongoing prosecutions and looming investigations.

He rules Italy through a right-wing coalition that includes a party which proclaims itself the "successor" to fascist dictator Benito Mussolini's sinister faction. He has flatly reneged on earlier promises to divest himself of his media holdings, while conducting a relentless campaign aimed at undermining the authority of Italy's judicial system, a bulwark of the nation's ever-turbulent democratic system. He has sacked journalists from Italy's state television network for criticizing his government - an act of free speech that Berlusconi called "criminal."


Berlusconi was turfed out of office in 2006, but returned to power this year at the head of his most hard-line coalition yet. And these days - in our "changed" post-9/11 world, when Western governments have embraced aggression, authoritarianism and the adoration of raw power as never before - there is no need for Berlusconi's blackshirts to sugarcoat their Fascist proclivities. Yet even though we have learned to expect the worst from our degraded democracies (and are rarely disappointed), it still comes as something of a shock to see Italy reviving one of Fascism's most brutal policies - the official demonization of an entire ethnic group - against one of the movement's most ravaged historical targets: the Gypsies.

None of what you posted addreresses the subject that the author of the thread is asking about and has no relevance except the nation of Italy is mentioned. Why post this drivel?
