Hawaii leaders find hope in Obama workshops
Honolulu Star-Ad ^ | January 6, 2019 | Sophie Cocke

Posted on 01/06/2019 2:13:21 PM PST by LeoWindhorse

It was a message of hope that carried Hawaii-born Barack Obama into the White House a decade ago, and it’s that same message he is continuing to carry through his post-presidency work to inspire and empower a new generation of international leaders.

That was clear Saturday as 21 young people chosen by the Obama Foundation as emerging leaders gathered at the East-West Center in Honolulu for a day of workshops and conversations about how to design a leadership program for the Asia-Pacific region. (snip) Obama was not present for yesterday’s activities but is expected to meet today with participants, who will pitch their ideas for the Asia-Pacific leadership program. The former president is scheduled to deliver remarks later in the evening at a private event.

Let me be the first to say this is pure unadulterated crap. Nothing but leftist indoctrination. Hope? Hope in what? Hope for what purpose? Hope for what end? Nonsense.

Fox works as executive manager for the head of the state Office of Hawaiian Affairs.

Manuel is a program manager with the state Department of Hawaiian Home Lands where he leads a team of planners and community development specialists in creating affordable housing and homestead communities for Hawaiians.

These are the two main State of Hawaii agencies that Hawaiian Hawaiians depend upon to advance their affairs . This is an ACORN-like targeted socio-ethnic indoctrination operation .

” Hawaii-born “

Except no hospital has any paperZ, or admit to have any.

Mama Dunham dropped Barry on his head into a bucket of communal washbasin it seems.

Just because I’m nosy, I found out next year’s program will cost $11,300, not including airfare and visa fees. The bonus of actually meeting Saint Bath House of Man Country is extra, but I don’t know how much.

You can’t just sign up, you have to apply and be accepted.

21 or so little brains to wash, for $237,000, plus bonus cash to let the sheeple look at you.

Not bad for meetings to designed shape the world according to the twisted and evil ideas of the left.
