You miss the point. From the Evidence i've seen, it is quite likely he was adopted under Indonesian law. The Question is, was he adopted under Hawaiian Law? When his mother abandoned him in the early seventies, and he lived with his grandparents during that time, it is likely that he WAS adopted under Hawaiian law, if not earlier by Lolo Soetoro, than later by them.
Stanley Ann's (1973 I think) tax return indicates he was dropped as a dependent. Staying with Gramps and Toots would have likely been helped by some official document giving them legal guardianship. When Barack Sr. and Stanley Ann just happened to be in Hawaii at the same time, that would have been a good and convenient opportunity to sign some legal papers regarding Barry. That an impoverished unemployed drunken and crippled loser from Kenya would decide to fly to Hawaii and back just for kicks is asking a lot of coincidence.
But even if he was, the Indonesian laws in effect at the time would not of automatically granted Obama Indonesian citizenship.

With respect, that makes zero sense. Obama was back in the states by 1971 and never lived with Soetoro after that, so why would Soetoro go to the trouble of adopting him in a foreign country? A country he was not living in and had no plans on living in. And why would grandparents formally adopt a grandson? To what purpose?
