There are some legal problems with your proposal to marry an american
citizen and then quickly obtain a divorce.  I'm not a lawyer, but my
understanding is that is the marriage does no last for at least two
years the Immigration and Naturalization Service can withdraw the
permanent residence status on the grounds that the marriage was a sham
(which of course it was).  Thats not to say that they will act
(the INS has to find out first), but a short marriage does not
neccesarily solve immigration problems.
