Here’s a copy of a Hawaiian COLB where the mother’s race is listed as “Hawaiian Caucasian” and the father’s race is “Filipino Spanish.”

In 2008, factcheck.org inquired about “African” being listed as the father’s race and Kurt Tsue of the Hawaii Department of Health told them:
“Update, August 26: We received responses to some of our questions from the Hawaii Department of Health. They couldn’t tell us anything about their security paper, but they did answer another frequently-raised question: why is Obama’s father’s race listed as “African”? Kurt Tsue at the DOH told us that father’s race and mother’s race are supplied by the parents, and that “we accept what the parents self identify themselves to be.” We consider it reasonable to believe that Barack Obama, Sr., would have thought of and reported himself as “African.” It’s certainly not the slam dunk some readers have made it out to be.”

Barak Obama, Sr. signed his name without a “c”, so I would think if he supplied the COLB info and named his child after himself, he would have named him “BARAK” like himself.
I saw his name and signature on an African article he wrote.
Therefore, I am inclined to believe he did not provide any of the info for the COLB.

yeah, I think that he would have listed Kenyan or British East Africa.

How many non-American blacks go around calling themselves African? seriously.

If I came from Europe I would list the nation. If Asia, the county. Africa? I would list the country.

Are those Brennan’s fat fingers holding the forgery in the 3rd photo at Obama’s HQs at the Fact Check site?

Yaw ... and these would represent mixtures of races, as in each parent was of a mixed race. Barack Sr. was not. According to the Natality Reports of the time, vital records used the same classifications as the Census, which refers to "foreign-born negroes" ... Even on his visa applications, Barack Sr. never referred to himself as African for his race.
