Well honey, a baby's race on their birth certificate is typically determined by the parents or whoever is filling out the paperwork. They usually just jot down whatever race they identify the baby as. It's not like a DNA test is done in the delivery room to confirm their ancestry, so it's basically just a guessing game.
What else can I help you with?
Why does it call you a caucasian on your certificate of birth?

Is a certification of live birth the same thing as a birth certificate in illinois?
No. A Certification of Live Birth is a short form Birth Certificate. Depending on the state it may say different things but one from Hawaii will say the name, date of birth, hour of birth, sex, city, town or location of birth, island of birth, county of birth, mother's maiden name, mother's race, father's name, father's race, date accepted by registrar, a certificate number and seal. The seal may be different depending on the year it was printed. A Birth Certificate, or Certificate of life Birth has many more things on it. Which includes signatures, doctor(s), witnesses, and the SSN. Some employers may or may not accept a short from Birth Certificate, some may not even ask for one, depends how lucky you are ;-)

Why does is say African instead of Negro on Barack Obama's birth certificate when African is where you're from it's not a race?
Actually, the birth certificate says "African" -- and it refers to his father, who is in fact from Africa (born and raised in Kenya). The confusion is that the president has the same name as his biological father. The "African" refers to his dad, Barack Senior. The term "African-American" was not in common use in 1961, so it would not have appeared on a birth certificate. President Obama was biracial (mother was white and from the United States, father was black and from Africa). But his birth certification does not classify him-- it classifies the races of his parents.
Why has Obama not shown his birth certificate?
During the 2008 presidential race, the Obama campaign released a shorter version of his birth certificate that was authorized by Hawaii. It is a valid, legal, state-certified birth certificate and is the only kind HI usually gives. On April 27, 2011, President Obama and the White House released the long-form version of his Hawaii birth certificate. The state usually does not release this version, but the president received a waiver after a request from his attorneys. The long-form birth certificate includes more information than the short form, including the name of the Honolulu hospital where Obama was born and the name of the attending physician.

Does the State of Hawaii have two different documents as birth records Certification of Live Birth and Certificate of Live Birth and what is the difference in the two?
In Hawaii, a Certificate of Live Birth is a long form birth certificate. The Certification of Live Birth is the short form birth certificate. The long form contains more information than the short form. The Certification is computer generated utilizing the information from the long form birth certificate. It shows the date the long form was filed. If a Certificate of Live Birth (long form) does not exist, the state of Hawaii will issue a No Record Certification. A short form birth certificate from Hawaii is acceptable proof of birth and citizenship when applying for a US passport, but a short form birth certificate from California or Texas is not.
