I was born in London, England but did not qualify for citizenship because niether of my parents were citizens. I am a Liberian citizen, but I am a permanent US resident (green card). If I wanted to visit England for a 2 week trip, would I need to obtain a visa? or would I be ok if I could provide proof that I was born there (birth certificate)?
Thanks

Your birth certificate doesn't mean anything to Immigration. It's your nationality that does and is indicated by your passport (failing that a visa).
Since you don't have British citizenship and are going to the UK as a Liberian you will need a visa.
See link for what UKvisas.gov.uk has to say and you can apply through them.

What year were you born? Anyone born before 1983 in the UK is British.
If you travel on a Liberian passport you need a UK visa to visit the UK.

A Liberian needs a visa to UK even when possessing a greencard.
