Inside the Story of Barack Obama’s College Love — the Woman He Proposed to Twice Before Michelle

Before marrying Michelle Obama, Barack Obama was deeply involved with another woman, according to David J. Garrow’s biography Rising Star: The Making of Barack Obama. In his early 20s in Chicago, Obama dated Sheila Miyoshi Jager and even proposed to her twice.
