Forged Credentials

Anyone who thinks the Obama COLBs found on Factcheck.org and Snopes are genuine, I have a question for you. How is Barack Obama's COLB genuine if it classifies his father as African? Births in the United States in 1961 are classified for vital statistics into white, Negro, American Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Aleut, Eskimo, Hawaiian and Part-Hawaiian (combined), and "other nonwhite."
