REVEALED: Barack Obama two-timed Michelle Obama with a white girlfriend he had 'desperately proposed to TWICE'
- Rising Star, by David J. Garrow, claims Barack Obama dated Sheila Miyoshi Jager before he met Michelle
- He proposed to her in 1986 but her parents said no because they were too young
- Garrow writes that Obama believed he needed to 'fully identify as African American' to fulfill his political ambitions
- He believed that having a non-black spouse could damage his prospects, according to the book
- But Obama proposed again before leaving for Harvard Law School, and again was turned down
- The future president met his wife-to-be at the university but Garrow claims he kept seeing Jager on-and-off for the first year of their relationship
- But they severed their relationship once and for all after the Obamas married
- Barack Obama proposed to a different woman - twice - before he met Michelle and kept on seeing her for the first year of his relationship with FLOTUS.
Sheila Miyoshi Jager was almost entirely omitted from Obama's own biography, Dreams of My Father, where she was simply combined with his other white exes into one character.
But according to Rising Star, by David J. Garrow, Jager played a huge role in Obama's formative years. So much so that even after Barack met his wife-to-be Michelle, he kept seeing Jager on and off for at least a year, the book claims.

Michelle and Barack's (pictured in January) inspiring marriage may have been #relationshipgoals, but a new book claims he kept on seeing his earlier girlfiend for the first year of his relationship with FLOTUS
The couple were very much in love in the mid 1980s when they were living together in Chicago, according to Jager, who described them as being 'an island unto ourselves.'
Their relationship quickly progressed and in the winter of 1986, while visiting his girlfriend's parents, Barack popped the question, Jager told Garrow.
They remained together, but it was about this time that Jager began to realize her then-boyfriend's 'deep-seated need to be loved and admired.'

The book claims that Barack kept on seeing Jager for the first year he was dating Michelle but said it stopped after the couple married in 1992
Now 53, the associate professor and director of the East Asian program at Oberlin College in Ohio, told Garrow that Obama became 'so very ambitious very suddenly.'
'I remember very clearly when this transformation happened, and I remember very specifically that by 1987, about a year into our relationship, he already had his sights on becoming president.'
But Obama believed he needed to 'fully identify as African American' to fulfill his political ambitions - and believed that having a non-black spouse could damage his prospects, according to the book.
This reportedly put pressure on Obama's relationship with Jager who is of Dutch and Japanese heritage.
By the time he was leaving for Harvard Law School, their relationship was on the rocks.

But Obama was not ready to give up on Jager, and proposed to her for a second time - asking her to join him in Harvard.
Again Jager turned him down.
She believed that his proposal was 'out of a sense of desperation over our eventual parting and not in any real faith in our future.'
The second marriage rejection was too much for their relationship, and the couple split.
Obama went to law school where he famously met Michelle where she was working. The couple quickly fell for each other and began dating.
But Garrow claims that Jager and Barack continued to see each other on and off after she arrived at Harvard for a teaching fellowship.
'I always felt bad about it,' Jager said.
After the bumpy start, according to the book, the former first lady and president went onto have an inspiring relationship. Pictured Michelle straightens Barack's tie while they wait on the North Portico last September

However, after Barack and Michelle married in 1992, Jager says that they stopped seeing each other and their contact was limited to the odd letter or phone call.
The Obamas have not publicly responded to the claims in the book.
But it is not the first time Barack's exes have been laid bare.
Another biography by Pulitzer-prize-winning journalist David Maraniss detailed his earlier relationships with white women Alexandra McNear and Genevieve Cook who both allegedly accused him of being self-obsessed.
Cook, who dated Obama before he dated Jager, said he would confide that he felt like an 'imposter' as there was 'hardly a black bone in his body'.
She eventually told him he 'needed to go black' (to date a black woman), whereas he countered that he would never find a black woman 'he would feel truly comfortable with'.
In the end, Cook tired of his emotional 'withheld-ness, his lack of spontaneity', and broke up with him in 1985.
