Since she was born in Jakarta there could not possibly be a BC in Hawaii with her name on it.

No, that's not my understanding.

TexasDarlin has a lot more on this, but my understanding is that if the child qualifies for American birth citizenship - for instance, if Stanley Ann Dunham Soetoro considered herself to be a citizen of Hawaii and NOT a citizen of Indonesia - then there are circumstances under which Stanley Ann Dunham Soetoro could have applied for documentation of Maya Soetoro's birth from the state of Hawaii, even though the birth [apparently] took place in Indonesia.

The problem is that there is no evidence that Stanley Ann Dunham Soetoro considered herself to be a citizen of Hawaii [in fact, she was very likely a citizen of Indonesia at that point - again, a nation which does NOT recognize dual citizenship], and so, if Stanley Ann Dunham Soetoro was not a citizen of the state of Hawaii [much less a citizen of the USA], but applied for & received this Hawaiian documentation for her daughter, Maya Soetoro, as though she [Stanley Ann] were a citizen of Hawaii, then she [Stanley Ann] committed a felony [or multiple felonies].

This must be based on some code or law regarding how one qualifies for the issuance of a valid BC that shows that one was born in Hawaii. What is that code or law?
