It amazes me, still, that so many people use "tunnel history" to illustrate their ideas and beliefs! It's as though "Hawaiian History" started AFTER Kamehameha conquered and "United" these Islands!

Compare what Kamehameha did when he OVERTHREW the existing monarchy of Mau`i, O`ahu, Molokai and Kaua`i! Then, compare what America did and how!

Next . . . compare what Kamehameha did from Day 1 and, subsequently, what his descendants have done for decades! Now, compare what America and a lot of WHITE families have done for these Islands during the same time frame!

Don't we get it? MOST of we Native Hawaiians are descendants of the DEFEATED Ali`i! If the Monarchy was still in place, WE WOULD HAVE NOTHING! At least with America we have been given a LOT OF OPPORTUNITIES and have been able to live and pursue "The American Dream"! Think about it!

Mahalo a nui loa,
