You’ve only had one decent Senator in the 61 years of statehood, and Hiram Fong left office almost 44 years ago. Independence is the only option and Quentin Kawananakoa can become the new Emperor under the auspices of the Hawaiian Royal family (which should never have been dethroned). At least he’s a Republican. Then he can remove the Stalinists infesting the islands.
He can tell them to swim to California or China.
Wow! You know who Quentin is! I’ve met him several times and know his story and connection to Hawaii’s past,as well.I have suggested essentially the same thing you are saying here ,many times. He indeed was a Republican , although nowadays he has almost completely disappeared from the public eye. Everytime Hawaii residents have a chance to elect real Hawaiians , they refuse to do so. Duke Aiona is the perfect example. In addition , the Hawaii Republican Party (HRP) is one if the most feckless , ineffective , almost non-existent R State Partys in the entire nation.So the is almost zero hope for political change. You mention Fong as the best we’ve had , Hirono is the worst. By far. I truly hope she croaks. It’s the only way we will get rid of that curse.
