  That would be unconstitutional here. You can't stop a citizen from
entering the country.

  (Of course if you try to enter the country with some other form of ID
than your passport, it will probably take longer than the usual 10 seconds
it takes with a passport. I don't know what it would involve, but probably
more scrutiny, perhaps even paperwork. If you don't have *any* form of ID,
it will probably take a lot longer to prove your citizenship in some other
way. However, constitutionally you are allowed to enter the country as a
matter of course, if you are a citizen. The constitution does not mention
passports as a requirement.)
