The Republicans in Hawai'i, are only a small part, of the big picture.  The world is bigger than Hawai'i.

The senior republicans, are a problem.

Just like many kupuna, who are destroying, many old Hawaiian institutions, because of their old ways, that chase away the young.

First, you don't turn your loyalty, when you are in office.  You switch your alliances, when you run for the office, once again.

Moral character & virtue, transcends politics.
