Well, he did do his statesmanship in Great Britain but he was the First and so far only "Honorary American Citizen". See Wikipedia. Appropriate extract: In 1963 U.S. President John F. Kennedy acting under authorization granted by an Act of Congress, proclaimed Churchill the first Honorary Citizen of the United States. Churchill was too ill to attend the White House ceremony, so his son and grandson accepted the award for him.
