The Boston Globe reported Thursday that US President Barack Obama's parents may have planned to give him up for adoption prior to his birth, but then changed their minds.
The report cites a conversation between the Kenyan-born Obama Sr. and an Immigration official that took place on April 12, 1961.
According to a record of the conversation, Obama's mother, Ann Dunham, was "making arrangements with the Salvation Army to give the baby away", the Globe reported.
"Subject got his USC wife 'Hapai' (Hawaiian for pregnant) and although they were married they do not live together and Miss Dunham is making arrangements with the Salvation Army to give the baby away," the quoted memo says.

I'd like to put him up for adoption, too, but I don't think any other country will take him.
