Whew, that's EXACTLY what overtaxed Hawaii needs:  Even MORE expensive government to support.  Leave it to big government advocate and racial separatist Barack Obama to make our lives even harder and take a major swipe at Hawaii's melting pot on his way out of office.  Has anyone bothered to see how poorly Indians are doing on the mainland?  More government has NOT been the answer.  Do part-Hawaiians in Hawaii really want to become an Indian tribe?  This is a transparent scheme for Hawaii's political establishment to get their hands on land for more development by manipulating part-Hawaiians into believing they are really supporting something greater than themselves.  Auwe!
