Hawaiians want change, and if the Democrats don't offer change, Hawaiians are going to vote for the Republican who offers change.

I support allowing homosexuals to serve openly in our military and eliminating the 'don't ask, don't tell' policy.

The sentiments in Hawaii about Washington's failure of leadership are no different than the rest of the country.

I believe that the fact and the reality of homosexuality and heterosexuality and of opposite and same-gender unions should be taught in our public schools without a value judgement system also being offered.
