I don’t think that there’s any problem at all with a native Alaskan or a native Hawaiian flirting with secessionist groups.

After all, reservations are independent nations.

I really don’t see how anyone couldn’t see the emotions involved in these states that were until recently territories of the US.

Check out Puerto Rico.

That's a joke. They are a pale semblence of autonomous provinces at best.

Then how can people blame some American blacks for not being sufficiently patriotic but have diffreent standards for Hawaiians and Alaskans? Unlie the African Americans, who were brought here afgainst their will, Hawaii and Alaska were not forced into the Union. They chose it.
