Assuming this is in the United States; it probably nulifies the need for 
a second ID because the process for obtaining a passport already 
requires that you provide ID before you can get a passport. If you are 
looking for an official answer, ask the next time this request is made 
of you. A passport also proves citizenship.

Citizenship is not required in order to obtain a drivers license; only 
proof of legal residence is.

Policies excepting an expired passport are entirely up to the agency who 
requests the ID. It is possible to switch citizenship from one country 
to another. It is also possible to hold citizenship in more then one 
country at a time.
