text: My suggestion : address problems at home first (Hawaii) before we tell the rest of the USA how things should be done.  Try to work on our "worst of the worst" list in so many categories so when we complain about all of the republican everything, they don't say "hey, you had 50 years of pure democrat control. Think you can get something working right over there yet ?"
  - Worst homeless problem
  - Worst budget planning (Rail, H3, state retirement fund)
  - worst schools, worst heat in the schools, overcrowding, high dropout rates.
  - worst place for teachers. new teachers get purgatory in the lowest performing schools.
  - Worst cost of living, worst housing prices
  - Worst traffic
  - Worst state to make a living. 
  - Corruption. The Chief of police and his prosecutor wife are under FBI investigation - this list is massive.
  - Drugs, kronics everywhere.
  - Too many Gangstaaass wanna be.  (but if the chief is doing it, then wtf ?)
  - Everyone is an MMA fighter.
  
  We need to start leading by example.
