Synopsis:

With a foreword written by former presidential candidate Michael Dukakis, this book portrays President Barack Obama as a true child of Hawai'i and explains why he believes that America can achieve even more greatness by learning from the multicultural customs of the 50th state. * Provides connections between quotes from President Barack Obama to his philosophy and temperament throughout the book * Supplies a comprehensive look at the multiculturalism of Hawai'i and ties these characteristics to Obama's career and political decision-making * Includes a reprint of the text of the Aloha Spirit Law, which guides governmental decisions in Hawai'i with the force of law * Identifies how Obama's presidency is unlike any other as a result of his multicultural experiences as a child of Hawai'i, and why he is compelled to bring his humanity, idealism, and strong belief in American values to the entire country
