2. Can't do it

Amendment 14: All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside.

The US Constitution has no provision for stripping citizenship from any person who was born here or who has been naturalized.

4. You mean "numbered" Swiss bank accounts.

"Swiss bank accounts" are just bank accounts in Switzerland.

...and money can be hidden in any number of ways...you don't have to bank with the Swiss to do it.
