Well, I'm not sure what you consider obvious or not, but those are the most important ones.

From Wikipedia, some other examples are the right to be considered for federal employment (most Federal Government jobs being closed to non-citizens), access to US consular officials if arrested abroad, and exemption from certain real estate taxes[1].

I guess when I talked about rights I was really thinking about protections from the government rather than about liberties or privileges like serving in or voting for the government -- like the one against excessive fines that was mentioned.
