“Why’s” can only happen to real people with feelings, motives, plans, goals, fears, etc. If something didn’t actually happen, the actors in the story can’t have real motives, etc.
So, if Stanley Ann did go to college in WA, the only reason I could think of is because she lived in WA.
Moses was born in Egypt to a Hebrew father.
Obama is presumed to be born in Hawaii to a Kenyan father.
If Moses is a Hebrew why is Obama not a Kenyan.
Blood matters to God....not being born on a spot of land.

“I have been researching this since June and on Sept. 30th I discovered a link to an excerpt of yet another Obama book. It revealed that Ann registered for classes at University of Washington in late August of 1961.”
See here:
http://www.christianfaithandreason.com/obama.html
At that link is the article titled “The Myth of Barack Obama’s Early Life” by Michael Patrick Leahy, Summer 2008 online edition August 25, 2008 ( Excerpted from the book What Does Barack Obama Believe? to be published by Harpeth River Press in September 2008)
It has quotes by Ann Dunham’s friends talking about Ann enrolling in extension classes Aug. 1961 at Univ. of Washington.
on page 6:
“Susan Blake, another high school classmate, said that during a brief visit in 1961, Dunham was excited about her husband’s plans to return to Kenya “We all had June Cleaver as our role models, and she was blazing new trails for herself,” said Blake, a former Mercer Island city councilwoman. (37)
Blake recalls that Dunham, who was calling herself Ann Obama at the time, visited her at her house in Mercer Island during the last week of August, 1961.
She left Honolulu just as soon she had clearance from her doctor to travel with her new baby. He was just 3 weeks old. She had sent a postcard that she would be in town, and was staying with a friend of her mother’s.
“The real purpose of this trip, however, may have been different than Stanley Ann Dunham described to her friends. In August, 1961, she enrolled in a University of Washington extension course. Between August, 1961 and March 1962, she enrolled in a total of four extension courses at the University of Washington, earning a total of 20 credits for her work in those courses, no small feat, considering that graduation required 180 credits, and the typical full time student earned 45 credits a year. Neither Box nor Blake has any recollection of Stanley Ann telling them she was enrolling on that same trip in extension courses at the University of Washington. (40)
It was a curious visit, and a curious academic choice. Why would she enroll in extension courses at the University of Washington when she had found herself intellectually stimulated during her previous year of studies at the University of Hawaii?”
on page 8 on online edition of article:
“In March, 1962, Stanley Ann Dunham moved from Honolulu to Seattle, Washington, where she enrolled as a full time student at the University of Washington for the spring quarter, which continued until June, 1962, and got her own apartment. She enrolled in classes and earned 10 credit hours that quarter.
Seattle Times journalist Jonathan Martin reports that some high school classmates recall visiting her and her young son alternately at the Laurelhurst student housing, then at a Capitol Hill apartment during the period that stretched from March 1962 to at least September 1962.” (43)
I don’t have the book in order to cite the numbered sources in the article, perhaps someone else actually has the book or access to it.

Having spent months researching on-line to me that was one of the mother lode finds. I believe Ann stayed in WA and took the extension courses while the infant slept, then actually attended classes during Spring 1962.
The excerpt of the book revealed a few things which we hadn’t known before and raised one question in my mind when it was mentioned that Ann was depressed because she couldn’t find a job.
The World’s Fair opened in April 1962 and jobs would have been plentiful. Also we know she managed to complete four courses prior to attending classes and then she was only registered for two courses which she completed in Spring 1962.
I wondered why there were no photos of an infant and this would explain why. There are plenty of photos of the toddler and none of the infant!
Also I researched the 6085 Kalanianaole Hwy address listed in the birth announcement which was published in both “The Honolulu Advertiser” and “The Star - Bulletin”.
The address is not associated with the Davis family (they were living on the leeward side of Kalihi valley close to Pearl Harbor and had been since 1956) the Dunham family lived in “a large house on Kamehameha Ave., then “a modest wooden house on University Ave.” before moving to the 10th floor apartment on Beretania St.” where Madelyn has now lived for 40 years.
Obama Sr. lived at the “Atherton Y.M.C.A.” followed by a small, single story home in St. Louis Heights.”
I then wondered if the address was for a home of one of Sr’s friends but learned that “Arnie was completing his military requirements” and lived in base housing. I still don’t know whose home address was listed for the birth announcement but believe Grandma Dunham knew of a safe address from her job with the escrow department at Bankoh and used it to register not only the birth but to use for the birth announcement.
By the end of 1961 she was actually the manager of the escrow department. (all this information with the exception of Arnie’s address and the Davis address were found in “The Honolulu Advertiser”. Arnie’s address was found in a section on the Obama website while the Davis address was found in an article at U of H) I can provide the links if you want them.

This person posted this information about the address where Ann and Barack supposedly lived in Honolulu when Barack was born:
” Freedom v Socialism: Wednesday, October 22, 2008 8:55 PM
“I googled 6085 Kalanianaole Hwy on the satellite map. That neighborhood was not built in the late 50s. Maybe the mid to late 70s, when Obama was a teenager.
Also, I searched the Honolulu Advertiser and there was’nt a single story about Obama residing at 6085 Kalanianaole Hwy. This “birth announcement” cannot be verified.”
Has this ben discussed before reqarding this particular address being in existence in 1961??
Also, why was Ann Dunham’s Social Security Number issued from WASHINGTON in 1959/60. I thought Social Security numbers got issued from State of Birth?? I thought she was born in Kansas...
