uh talk to france-- I believe it is possible-- but there's a lot of legal mumbo-jumbo that has to go on to get that to happen-- eh-- a couple of my friends have dual-- one is irish/american the other is jamacan/american another one is british/jamacan&has a green card for the USA.
soo... yes--- the USA does allow dual citizenship--- but not with all countries...

Dual citizenship has been permitted in France since 1973, with some exceptions. However, by French law you will be stripped of your citizenship if you serve in a civil capacity(for the U.S) without leave to do so. The same applies to U.S dual citizens. Be very careful of that last one, as serving in the French Army is one way to get citizenship, but it will strip you of your U.S one. You'll want to contact a French immigration lawyer certainly.
