FC claims to have spoken with Kurt Tsue who told FC "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.'"
Whether Kurt Tsue's statements are true requires more research IMHO. In an attempt to determine if Kurt Tsue was telling the truth, I ran across a birth certificate that seems to validate Kurt Tsue's assertion that parents' are allowed to self-identify their races.
The reader must come to his own conclusion about the evidence supplied. At this point, there is more evidence supporting the idea that Senior would have identified himself as African than there is evidence that the HDoH followed some rigid specification document. The HDoH specification document indicates "White" should be used as a race instead of "Caucasian." But most of the BCs we've all seen online indicate "Caucasian." So I don't see that HDoH follows their own rules. And we've seen that before with that department on the UIPA requests.
Again, why would anyone even bother reading what FactCheck has to say unless they were doing it from the view of what the enemy is up to. It was researched and the list of what races/ethnicities in use at that time were listed on many threads, many times.
And “African” was not one of them.
You are using FactCheck as an authority and saying someone else is wrong solely on the authority of that leftist 0bama connected site.
Weird.
