The issue that you will run into isn't the country you want to adopt from but bringing the child into the US. In order to bring an internationally adopted child into the US you must apply for a IR3 or IR4 visa. Both those applications require that at least one parent be a US citizen. That is my understanding but it is wise to check with immigration to make sure.
