Re: Comments on the Akaka Bill?
I can import immigrants to any country so that they outnumber the native people 5 to 1 and then say, hey, lets have a vote.
Who do you think will win?
Asian immigrants wanted statehood because they knew they had the numbers to take over the state "democratically". Without statehood, the governor and other top positions would continue to go to Mainland appointed Haoles who would no doubt continue to represent the plantation owners.
1959 has nothing to do with what happened in 1893.
