A state Senate committee on Tuesday called for a statue of former President Barack Obama to be erected in the state where he was born.
The Senate Judiciary Committee voted unanimously for a resolution requesting that the Hawaii State Foundation on Culture and the Arts commission the statue.
Obama was born in Honolulu in 1961 and graduated from Punahou School on Oahu.
The resolution will be referred to the state Senate’s Ways and Means committee for consideration.
The resolution called for an art advisory committee to be formed that would select a location for the statue, review design proposals and select an artist.
It did not specify how the statue would be funded.
The resolution said the U.S. thrived under Obama’s presidency, noting that the national deficit shrank by two-thirds and 16 million Americans were able to obtain health care through the Affordable Care Act adopted during his administration.

If he had an ounce of humility, he would quickly and quietly quash the idea. But we all know that ain’t gonna happen.
I have a few comments in there, and they are not in tune, so to speak.
AND HOORAY FOR LEOWINDHORSE!!!!!
I'm so glad you called my attention to the readers' comments. Thanks!
With today’s AI it’s right around the corner.
Or “Sex Robot” Technology, which would suit an Obama statue just fine.
I wonder how quickly the state of New York will erect a statue in honor of President Trump. That is, after his two terms are up.
I would like to see a statue of Trump wopping little barry with a cane, Indonesia style. In Kenya and Chicago.
heh heh ...often the real truth in online articles is to be found in the comments . THIS is such a case . Make some comment of your own
Or better yet, a statue of barry in front of one the Chicago bath houses.
Kind of like “Washington slept here”.
I beliee it will be supernatural. Just as the false prophets in Moses’ time turned rods into snakes.
That’s pretty impressive. Until the other snake from Moses’ staff eats your two snakes.
Didn’t we formerly ban naming public buildings, roads, schools, ships, etc., after living politicians, even if out of office? I don’t care what party the politician belongs to, the whole idea smacks of third-world dictatorships.
Yes, you are right. Simple facts that anyone that was interested in the issue knew at the time. It makes me so mad when I see someone on TV trying to drag up Trump forcing him to make a BC. The guest just needs to state these facts and leave it at that.
You’re probably 100% right about that.
The Tribulation will have all sorts of spiritual anomalies that will make folks gasp and believe anything.
I think our modern society is on to robots and AI. I think only the supernatural will cause so many to take the Mark of the Beast and damn their souls to Hell with no recourse.
Satan will pull out all the stops. Brother Dave Hunt (RIP) believed that Satan will try to pass off the Antichrist as “Jesus”.
Hmmmm....well it would certainly work on some of those I used to work with at a major church organization (no comment who publicly or privately for now).
Let’s build a statue in Indonesia...
On what planet?
I read stuff like that and sometimes think there’s hope for this country.
“That statue is kind of North Korean creepy.”
The real thing is just as creepy; if not worse.

Obama was just here again on his way back from talking America down and himself up in Asia . Again...
Why do groups pay for he & Hillary to come speak to them ? Are they retards?
ARREST OBAMA
