I do think the stroke of a pen eliminates the colonial acquisition of this sovereign nation. Most Hawaiians have not forgotten and do not agree with this designation. Interesting all of that was left out. If the truth of a nation's history is deliberately ommitted what happens to that nation? Look at the present collective fallout that emanates from such actions. We all pay in the long run and it is often not nice. Teach the truth today and ee are most likely to repeat earlier wrongs and more likely to act right in the present to avoid a negative historical past. Easy.

Player #2406803, Hawaii was made into a state, contrary to what they would have us believe, not because we wanted to "help" the indigenous natives, but because it's strategic positioning in the Pacific allowed us to extend our military reach by establishing a naval and marine presence in the area to 1: help protect the mainland U.S., 2: avail our forces an early assault platform to launch counter offense missions, 3: to place our weaponry in more logistical range of (specifically) Russia, and others! The 50s was the height of the cold war, Russia wasdeemed to be the biggest threat from abroad, and Hawaii was the ideal location to meet, and counter, an attack!

Player #2406803, I bet the Hawaiians get all the benefits of the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights the rest of the U.S. get. I want to take a cruise in Hawaii. It will be expensive since I live on the East Coast. I really want to see Hawaii and Alaska. I understand you see more of Hawaii on a cruise than Island hopping via Helicopters.
