So, it's your view that if Indonesia passed a law declaring you to be a citizen of Indonesia, you would lose your US citizenship?
What Indonesia allows has NOTHING to do with young Barry's US citizenship. Either he had it, or he didn't.
If he was a US citizen before SAD met Lolo, then he was a US citizen after he was adopted by Lolo.
And you think that a renouncement of citizenship, whether its done by your parents or not, precludes you from having to re-apply to become a citizen once again? I don’t agree. And what about his passport status to re-enter the US?

Whether that is true or not, an Adoption under Indonesian law might cause potential legal problems back in Hawaii, thereby necessitating legal action to straighten the mess out. I've read speculation that it was quite coincidental that Stanley Ann Dunham was in Hawaii from Indonesia at the exact same time as Barack Obama Sr. Flew into Hawaii from Kenya in 1970, the Year his Grandparents acquired custody of him. It might be that they were both there to sign over custody to the Grandparents, because subsequent to this visits, he lived with his Grandparents from then on. An Adoption by them would not have been difficult at all under these circumstances.
