My vision is for us to live in harmony with each other, both within and without the U.S., and to live in harmony with nature. I want to see the end of all wars, and a coming together of humanity to work together to end human suffering. Here in Hawai`i, I want justice for the Hawaiian people. Hawaiians deserve sovereignty, and an undoing of all the wrongs the U.S. has brought upon them. I also want to see nature flourish for all to enjoy. We should teach everyone to appreciate the amazing gifts the earth has to offer -- the ocean, mountains, animals, and plants. When you learn to live in harmony with nature, it influences everything you do; you would never make a decision that would threaten nature's delicate balance.
