If you host your site on a US based server is that a bona fide presence?

The only possible way for you: find someone in US and ask to register domain name for you.

Also ask your domain name registrar if they can help you with the issue. Some registrars do help.

Many of the country specific TLD's carry this type of restriction. It is not new. That has been the rules for US domains every since the rolled out.
