Akaka bill is something else

We Hawaiians are remarkably preposterous: Meaning, riding the surf or drowning

in the surf, but not dying, swimming out singing a new song of

aloha.

Meaning, again, the first shall be last, and the last first.

We

outnumbered Capt. Cook, so we killed him. But today is different, so we use a

new method of survival: Aloha. Only that they stole it from us, flying

“Aloha,” and we still surf singing a song, until Sen. Akaka’s bill making us

American Indians is just too much. We are everything from east to west, but

smoking a peace pipe instead of pakalolo, and the Indian is going to dislike

poi. Auwe, leave us alone with our ocean and let them have their

rivers.

But the Akaka bill is something else. First, mahalo to Dan and Dan,

and Patsy and Neil to have us review our history since Cook, when we were happy

by ourselves without pretending just to please the missionary and all his laws

of servitude and our degradation of remarkable preposterousness for their

treasonous greed.

Second and Lanakila: U.S. Constitutional law is forever,

without old age, or death, statute of limitation, or precedent of non-usage, or

yet, some unforeseeable principle of scholarship hypocrisy.

Quite simply,

Article VI of the Constitution provides that the Constitution and treaties with

foreign nations is the supreme law of the entire United States of America,

including the states, or other law to the contrary

notwithstanding.

Consequently, the treaties of the Kingdom of Hawai’i, as

indicated in the Akaka proposed legislation, provides for “perpetual peace and

amity,” having been admitted, violated in 1893 the war crimes destructive of

the Kingdom of Hawai’i (as President Cleveland declared Dec. 18, 1893), is a

cause of immediate Supreme Court summary adjudication – abating, decently other

proceedings.

I suggest the Office of Hawaiian Affairs representing us

Hawaiians immediately proceed in the U.S. Supreme Court.
