So your proof is your incorrect assumption about what the BC "should say according to you" concerning Kenya.
Great job!

Are you suggesting that the BC was made by Obama's friends and that they were mistaken when they typed "African" rather than your specified "negro"?
What exactly does the term "African" being there have to do with where the president was born? Besides, African supports what all birthers love. The singling out and specification of being from Africa. The term negro could imply being a black man from the South Pole. African supports that his father was from Kenya and not Toronto.edit on 18-1-2012 by spinalremain because: (no reason given)edit on 18-1-2012 by spinalremain because: (no reason given)

No, but I do expect the document to indicate the legitimate ruling government of Kenya during the time of issue, and not some faction that is trying to be the legitimate government.
That would be like trying to call the USA, the Republican Colony, and expecting other governments to accept a BC that stated the Republican Colony as their country.
Ain't going to happen. If you think so, I've got some ocean front property in Arizona to sell you.

Here's a map from 1960.

Kenya is directly south of Somalia and is listed as it is today.

Of course. It isn't as if the word didn't exist. Geopolitical facts need not get in the way of a simple clerical statement. It isn't as if the space for his father said "Neverland".

wasn't alive in 1960 so I don't know if the country was referred to as such. What I do know is that it wouldn;t be out of the ordinary since maos had it listed as such. Would it be a stretch for Obama Sr to have referred to his home country as Kenya? Considering that's how the Atlas of the day listed it? Perhaps he didn't and the Hawaii department of Health referred to such an atlas. I don't know either way. I see this as just another location for the goalpost. Next week it will be something different.
I still say let the court decide. That is what courts are for. They solve disputes.
This is good stuff. Annee was holding out on us... Microfilm! They are bringing the microfilm! This is really great.
If "African" was not a standard classification, it would indicate forgery.

I can help. In 1960 the people of Kenya referred to Kenya as Kenya.
In 1960 the people of America referred to Kenya as Kenya.
