This is the irony of a nation UNIQUELY created with quite impressive governing laws, with checks and balances even, never before in history allowed for such a massive citizenry sprawled over a large continent and Earth's greatest ocean.  The irony is the latter day troubles accumulating in the nation because the nation had hastily circumvented the letter and spirit of its own laws.  Today, SIGNIFICANT populations of alleged Hawaiians are Christians, US veterans, intermarrieds, multi-cultured, uncultured, alienated from their aboriginal language, capitalists, ambitious, ambivalent voters, techie reliant, tourists in their motherland's forests and mountains, Vegas butterflies, fast food junkies, druggies, prisoners....in other words, true Americans.
