I am especially proud to be a first generation American and a resident of Hawaii our youngest state. Our nation's pride lies deep within the heart's of its people. America has faith in liberty and justice and we all have faith and believe in ourselves. The United States freedom and opportunity is one of the greatest. We are truly the land of the great. From the rocky shores of Hawaii, to the beautiful sandy beaches of Hawaii, America is our home.
