Can we make the Philippines the 50th State instead? Christians, speak English, hard-working, natural resources, Obama didn’t grow up there, etc., etc...
Their politics is so patterned after ours and they are a proud and industrious people.
Plenty of wonderful Filipinos in Hawaii . The thing that gets me is that these Hawaii sovereignty proponents are such a micro minority , and yet they come off so self righteous and pseudo-intellectual and hawaii sovereignty politically correct . Like the Sharpton crowd , a very noisy , mouthy , radical crew of headline grabbers . And nobody confronts them . One day the confrontations will occur . When Hawaii cops find their balls ....
That would be a great trade.
Yeah! I love it. In the Philippines ( born there, American bred) my family celebrated Independence Day and Thanksgiving. Filipinos make great new citizens, we send our kids to school, get steady jobs, are quiet neighbors and would be too ashamed to make trouble in the US, the country we love.
I was raised in Hawaii. With my years perspective, and being marginally aware of the “ohana” movement, I say, maybe recklessly, if it weren’t for the military, I’d say give it back. I have always been uneasy with the way Hawaii was acquired, but mostly, it will regress, and people like my husband will finally be quiet about all the modernism, and he can get a shack on the beach or something, because the civil structure will fall down and there won’t be anymore money for maintenance and it will be like Cuba, frozen in time.
