An excerpt from The Obama Timeline.

In 1960, Dunham emphasized her free spirit with this statement to high school friends, “I dont need to date or marry to have children. Teacher Wichterman later recalled that Dunham would question anything, asking Whats so good about democracy? Whats so good about capitalism? Whats wrong with communism? Whats good about communism? [408,527,612]
Dunham was apparently a free spirit sexually. One former friend said that She couldnt be the girl you went steady with, but she could be the one you spent time with. That friend was not alone in that opinion. Dunham was also known to engage in inter-racial relationships; friend Susan Blake said that Dunham never dated the crew-cut white boys. [564,614]
Shortly after Dunhams high school graduation in 1960, the family had abruptly left Washington and moved to Hawaii, where she briefly attended the University of Hawaii. Taking his daughter with him to Hawaii was perhaps Stanley Armour Dunhams way of keeping an eye on her; he may have been reluctant to leave her behind at the University of Washington, after at least one false pregnancy scare. At the University of Hawaii in her freshman year, Dunham was described as shy and reluctant to participate in classroom discussions; out of the classroom she was friendly with the boys, frequently flirting and repeatedly touching them. [558,564]
Knowing of her sexual reputation, Obama, Sr. supposedly told Dunham, Its not mine when she informed him, in December of 1960, that she was pregnant. Obama, Sr.s classmates knew he had a wife in Africa. [564]
Dunhams acquaintances recall that they often had difficulties knowing when she was telling the truth. One remarked that, She would make you believe anything while you were face-to-face but, a few minutes after she’d leave, you’re realize what she said wasn’t very realistic or true,” explained one. Another friend recalls joining Dunham for dinner with her parents. Dunham tells an incredible story about a car accident; her skeptical mother lets her finish the story and then says, That never happened. [564]
One birth theory speculates that Dunhams parents were disturbed by the news of the pregnancy (understandably, considering the scandal an unwed pregnancy would bring in 1961), and likely tried to persuade her to give the child up for adoption and then claim she had miscarried. There is speculation that Dunham left Hawaii and gave birth to Obama in Washington State (or perhaps Canada) at a facility for unwed mothers, and then decided to keep the baby. She returned to Hawaii, registered the childs birth, claiming the child was born at home in Hawaii (thus resulting in two different birth certificates for Obama), and then promptly visited a friend in Seattle that same month, August of 1961. Her friend recalls having to show Dunham how to change the diaper. Dunham collects food stamps for a time. [564]
Almost immediately after giving birth to Obama in 1961, Dunham returns to Washington State to attend the University of Washington, leaving her infant to be cared for by her mother, and leaving Obama, Sr. at the University of Hawaii. [527]
Had a dear friend who became engaged to a gentle man who's parents were of mixed heritage.....After some long discussions and many tears they decided they both wanted children, but would NEVER put a child through what her fiance had experienced his entire life.....(and he had loving support of both parents.)...They broke their engagement
The very end sentence which speculates Ann returned to HI and left Jr with her mother is completely wrong! Ann had Jr with her in WA the entire time she was there. People aren’t looking at what is known about Madelyn at the time, specifically that by the end of 1962 she was made manager of the entire escrow/mortgage department at Bankoh. We also know from the excerpt by Michael Patrick Lehay posted at the Christian Faith and Reason website(unaccessible for some reason today) that former classmates of Ann testified that Jr was with Ann while she was in WA state as late as in the fall of 1962. Amongst those friends was one John Hunt who was a frequent visitor.
Also the matter regarding the food stamps has never been given a date let alone whether it was actually true or yet another instance of Jr trying to connect with the “great, unwashed masses.” The state of HI participated in a pilot food stamp program which took place between 1959 and 1964 when it was implemented as part of Johnson’s “Great Society program”.
