“How did “African” got on there?”

The parents.

“African isn’t a “race” “

It is in Kenya. From the 1962 Kenya Census Form,

“Column 5. Race.-Write European, Arab, Somali or African, etc. Asians must write Indian or Pakistan.”

So would Obama Sr. consider himself “African”.

Well he wasn't in Kenya, was he.

So would Obama Sr. consider himself “African”.
Another question without a question mark?

He could consider himself to be a Leprechaun.
There is no "racial category" for Leprechaun either.

Yea that might be the codes he would have used in Kenya to refer to himself as being called, but this is United States Federal/Hawaiian codes he would have been dealing with which was different than Kenya’s.
