Interesting. I think that you showed me a unique perspective; I didn't realize anyone was fighting for independence. I know there is a California Secessionist Party though, which I support. I think that if Hawaii were to leave the Union we would treat it like any other small country and guts it economy, exploit it for cheap sugar, and allow it to crumble.<hr size="1" /></blockquote><span class='postcolor'>

Now even I would support California becoming independent. Their policies are detrimental to the safety of the rest of our nation.

As for Hawaii. We will never let them go. If we did we would have to spend all of our time worrying about them allying with our enemies. They are too close to our shore to become unstable. Plus they could not sustain themselves. We do not need another expense that never earns us any money. (ie Virgin Islands)
