Nice try. You just forgot that she had to be 19 years old to do that, and she was ONLY 18, case closed!!!
In response to my post that Obama's mother could have easily and legally obtained NATURALIZED citizenship for her son, you all replied with some variation of the following:
fr_freak said: Obama’s mother was too young to automatically confer citizenship to her son at the time of his birth.

And the rest of you said something similar.
Earth to birthers: I never claimed Stanley Annn was old enough to automatically confer US citizenship onto her newborn son if he were born in Kenya. It is true that if born in Kenya, he would not be a US citizen at birth.
But that's irrelevant to my point.
If any of you had decent reading comprehension skills, you know that though he wouldn't be US citizen at birth if born in Kenya, as the minor child of a US citizen, he would be eligible for NATURALIZED citizenship under immigration laws in effect at the time. All his mom would have to do is fill out an application and present proof of her maternity and US citizenship.
Furthermore, unlike birthers, I can actually back up my claims. If you don't believe me, go read Title III, section 322 of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952.
So now, dear birthers, let me ask you:
What possible motive would granny Toot have to risk a purjury conviction and fraudulantly register her grandson's birth in Hawaii, if there were a simple and perfectly legal means for securing his citizenship if he really were born abroad?
