The Hawaiian answer, as it was a Democratic state and still is, was to start registering all those foreign kids by the thousands. The purpose being to tap into all those federal hundreds of millions then which would profit the state.

Very interesting point. Do you know of any good background info on how state citizenship was determined when Hawaii became a state (eg, residency requirements, etc)? And demographic data on "all those foreign kids" and their parents? And financial data on federal funding targeted for Hawaii's transition to statehood? Thanks....

We have had numerous threads and posts on just how easy it was to register a birth after the fact. It could and probably was done with just a phone call back then.Amazing.
