Do you have evidence that Obama was adopted after he was over age 18 and then renounced his U.S. citizenship?

And could you cite the Congressional Legislation that states that the United States and all its citizens and inhabitants must comply with Indonesian law?

Indonesia may not recognize dual citizenship, but the U.S. does. Indonesian law is applied in Indonesia, American law is applied in America. And there is no provision in American law that allows a parent or stepparent to renounce a minor child's citizenship.

The provisions of the 1930 Hague Convention do not apply, since they are conditional on the state (in this case the U.S.A.) recognizing that a parent or stepparent can renounce a minor’s citizenship. As I said, there is no provision in American law that allows that.

.
Just because Indonesia granted him citizenship of the country does not mean that he automatically lost his US citizenship, if he ever had it.

I don’t believe that Indonesia has the power to tell a US citizen to renege on his citizenship unless the country demands proof that his parent actually signed an official declaration that Hussein gave up his citizenship.
