By the letter of the law, a baby born in Kenya to an 18 year old American mother and a Kenyan father would not get automatic American citizenship.

Really? Do you know the reason why not?

When I applied for my kids I had to prove to the US embassy that I had lived in the US for 5 years after my 14th birthday. so that may be the catch for the 18 year old mother.
