Intergenerational Locals, More Relevant to Politics
August 08, 2008 | 03:07 PM

I'm sure trust fund baby Ms. Starr would make an excellent Representative in California, but in Hawaii, her revisionist anglo-interpretation of "Hawaiian" is not what intergenerational locals deserve. Yamashita is better suited to provide a vision for Hawaii. So what if he aligned with leadership, who is naive enough to think that one could raise hellfire and brimstone at the capitol and get anything done.

Ms. Starr's rhetoric reeks of the bourgeois California escapist who comes to Hawaii to reshape it into some imagined, gated paradise. Open your eyes, people really live and work here, and the average citizen ain't buying your tripe. We want a vibrant economy, not tree houses. We want to live where you live, Ms. Starr, in that million dollar second home your parents own.

You, represent the people, ironic.
