“In other words, all one has to do to disprove his theory is to find ONE other Hawaiian BC/COLB from that year that lists a parent’s race as “African”, and his whole theory goes down the toilet. Shouldn’t be too hard.”
Finding other instances of “African” as a prescribed race-category at a time when prescribed race-categories did not include “African” would prove only that certain Hawaiian typists were incompetent. Hell, the Boers are as much “African” as Obama, Sr.
We can play only by the rules of the time, and those rules excluded “African” as an acceptable race-category.

"African" has NEVER and never will be a 'race.'
Africa is a continent. People of all colors are born there, same as here. Would you list your race as 'North American"?
It was that little mistake of a kind that so often trips up the liars...usually something as simple as this rather than a long convoluted list of possibles.
