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.

Check the source article: http://canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/35884

There is a link there to the new Hawaii Department of Health race categories, which identifies Obama’s father as “African”. That means Obama must have updated his birth information after 2003, when the new categories started being used.

The hidden file probably contains a Late Certificate of Birth, which was probably completed within the last six years.

I always suspected that what Obama is trying to hide is that his father’s race is entered as something other than negro. His father was or was supposed to be, if I’ve heard correctly, 3/4 Arab, and his race could have been entered as caucasian.

Obama’s father could not be African-American because he was not American.

I don’t know. We have people here that insist “Mexican” is a race.

"...and how Sr. would have referred to himself

I think I'll run up to the records department today and have my race changed to "African", you know, so I can get some of those affirmative action benefits and job preferences.

Is, "excuse me, what race would you like listed on the birth certificate?" a common question to parents of newborns...or should we rely on the Doctor and Hospital to determine that information...as most of us have a Doctor and Hospital on our REAL, long form birth certificates.

LANYARD

Do you know when they changed from using “White” to “Caucasian” on birth cert. also? I have seen a few from the 60’s and all state the race as “White” not “Caucasian”! Just looks like another discrepancy on their part.
