Speaking of Hawai’i…

I was just reading about President Obama's vacation trip to Hawai'i and reflecting on the fact that it will probably be the prime vacation destination during his presidency. How cool for Hawai'i! And the press corps has to love it… sure beats Crawford, Texas for a destination. But, I also had to think about what this does to my long held belief that America needs to give Hawai'i back to the Hawaiians. I know that there are those that say we should keep it because we stole it fair and square. And steal it we did. It was blatant. And ugly. I've always entertained this thought that we, as a nation, might have matured enough over the years to a point where 'right' is more important than 'might'. Probably not.
