It would still be ‘black’ or “African-American”. Wouldn’t it? African isn’t a race. Obvious error.
The explanation from the left has been that in Kenya ‘African’ is a common race designation and how Sr. would have referred to himself.
Problem: It’s a government form. Check boxes typically. You can’t make up your own race designations. The race statistics are kept and reported.
The new information in the article indicates that Obama changed his birth certificate information after 2003 because new Hawaii Department of Health terminology was used on the Certification of Live Birth that was posted on Obama’s website and FactCheck.org. Most likely he filed a Late Certificate of Birth after 2003, which contained the new race identifier “African” for his father.
Good info! Thanks!
I was hoping someone would eventually confirm this. I know back in the 1960s we used the word “negro” but I didn’t want to jump to any conclusions without knowing for sure how that race would have been described in Hawaii at the time (especially since it had recently become a state).
I wonder who changed it
Info Ping.
We have speculated that Obama has been making changes adding to his record as late as 2006.
As was noted two weeks ago... the rumor in DC has been that the race on his original birth certificate read “Caucasian” and that was why he has spent so much money fighting release of the original.
If it was updated in 2006, then it would have the word “AMENDED” stamped on it and it would have the original “Date accepted.” The original BC was sealed after the Soetoro adoption was finalized. The Soetoro COLB was sealed after the Soetoro adoption was annulled and the Obama COLB was “filed” by court order. “Amended” does not appear on the COLB because one is considered original and not updated.
