Tonight's performance was exceptional tonight because I was able to listen to other things...from an objective point of view which is always a task at hand!
The audience was a bit different tonight and very interesting--I might add when compared to last nights audience.
Hawaii's culture as a whole have a different way of approaching things and I believe that this 'way of being' should be given a chance in debates. The win or loose is the intent for debated, but this was different . It was a challenge for humanity to exist on earth--that is what I got. Aloha aina and it's ancestors. How absolute and almost god like?
I belive that the annexation of the Hawaiian Islands is a bunch of covered up lies!
I ran into this link http://www.enotes.com/topic/Legal_status_of_Hawaii and found it interesting, especially the parallel view by anti and pro nationalist. It seems as though the people in support of the annexation of Hawaii by way of a U.S. Joint Resolution may be leaning on that De Lima v. Bidwell, 182 U.S. 1 (1901) case where a treaty made by that power is the supreme law of the land. Perhaps in their land, but not in Hawai’i nei!
One would think that due diligence would be applied by the U.S. when dealing with the independence of another country, but that was not the case concerning the Hawaiian Islands.
It’s so hard to believe that the U.S. cannot see the obvious. If they can’t see that hewa what else are they failing to see? If this same situation happened to them they would be all over us to correct the problem!
I think its good to let the talks begin, in other words give them enough rope and the will soon hang their own self!

We should all attend this one, I rather enjoyed listening to Jon Osario raise a response from the audience.
