"Actually, she was old enough to pass on citizenship. The age requirement you mention only applied to married women. But, whether or not she knew it at the time, Stanley Ann's marriage to BHO, Sr. was bigamous and therefore invalid. Thus, the little bastard was a NBC no matter where he was born, as long as Stanley Ann was his mother.”
You are wrong.
It does not matter if Ann was married or not, what matters is how many years she spent in the USA, after she became an adult.
Look at the rules in force at the time of Obama's birth. The Citizenship rules have changed, frequently. I suggest you look at the US Department of State Website, and at the applications for a Passport and the rules and regs for claiming “citizenship for those born abroad”.

You are wrong.Title 8 U.S.C. § 1409 paragraph (c) provides that children born abroad after December 24, 1952 to unmarried American mothers are U.S. citizens, as long as the mother has lived in the U.S. for a continuous period of at least one year at any time prior to the birth. Having obviously met that requirement, Anarchist Annie would have been fully able to pass on citizenship to Little Barry Bastard wherever she dropped him.
Of course, that fact is strictly for entertainment value, since it's perfectly clear "Stanley had a baby" on US soil, and therefore her (and the father's be he BHO or FMD or X) citizenship does not matter.
