The phony birth certificate lists his race as "African-American", but in the early 60's they were called "negro" and when political correctness started to set in in the mid 60's they wanted to be known as "blacks"

The term "African-American" was unheard of in the early 60's. I didn't start hearing the term until the early 89's.

It's has a lot in common with Dan Rather's phony National Guard papers that were produced using current technology as opposed to what was actually available at that time.
