However, the legal parents (by birth or adoption) on a corrected/amended BC would still remain the same.

One would think so, but I am not so certain. In any case, the two newspaper advertisements indicate that those names are what were being used in 1961 anyway. It doesn't bother me to think they were the original names put on his original birth certificate, I just doubt that Stanley was there when the paperwork was initiated.

This is likely true in ordinary cases, but it appears that Obama was the adopted son of a foreign national. It may have required a defacto adoption to straighten out his citizenship issues. I'm sure it was a legal tangle back in 1971.
