Hawaii will get much national attention to its Republican presidential caucuses. But is Hawaii a winner? Only if Hawaii’s nominee actually becomes president. Otherwise, Hawaii will have little influence after its caucuses.
All Republicans in 2012 must have a single unifying goal of getting rid of the President Obama disaster. Regardless of a voter’s personal likes/dislikes, preferences/prejudices, ideology and any other factors, each voter should vote for the BEST BET of who will be the strongest Republican nominee with the BEST CHANCE of defeating Obama.
Mitt Romney is our best hope for purging America of the Obama disgrace. A Hawaii vote for Romney is a vote for a winner. Any other vote will be a wasted vote and a loser who will reduce our national momentum for removing the Obama plague. Being mad is not enough; we must unite and win! Continued Republican division just makes Obama smile!
America’s very survival depends on this 2012 election. Real hope and change is critical. Hawaii can be an important part of saving America with a large resounding vote for Mitt Romney. Then Hawaii will be a clear winner and set the path for the rest of the states to get rid of Obama for America!

Black Sands defense
I’m writing in response to a letter from John Wilkinson (Tribune-Herald, Feb. 13) about his “tour” of Black Sands subdivision. I have lived here for several years, by choice, as a renter.
Apparently Mr. Wilkinson has missed out on much of our community, such as the people who feed, spay and neuter, and seek medical care for abandoned animals, placing them in homes when possible.
As far as the “tortured wretches” Mr. Wilkinson speaks of, many of them are wounded combat veterans who joined the military to defend the U.S.A., and now they suffer from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.
Whatever your views on war, it is sad when these wounded warriors don’t get the treatment they need and were promised. Often, they turn to drugs and drink.
There are several families who open their homes to help the children, and keiki programs are held during school break times, as well, here in Black Sands.
I know that there are problems here (as there are everywhere), but passing judgment on a community and writing a totally negative letter to the paper without presenting the whole picture helps no one. With all the struggles in the world today, we need to help each other more than ever.
