re: #15 Obdicut

Hawaiins are “average” americans about as much as Alaskans are. Their unique, different. Not only isn’t there anything wrong with that (nor does it make them “less american”) but it also makes them special. I’ve never been one to run in a crowd or care what others think of me so maybe you and I are a bit different that way. Trying to argue that Hawaiins are the same as Hoosiers or Buckeys is pretty weak.

Regardless, that wasn’t the point I got from reading the Santorum quote. Obama has been criticized by the right and left for being detached and too professorial. I don’t see anything really that different in Santorums critique.
