I’ve been to Hawaii, and yes, Haoles are often discriminated against by the locals. Perhaps Palin experienced a form of this and conveyed it to her father, hence the comment.

This NSFW search yields results, which would make me think twice before enrolling my child in a Hawaiian school. I trust people are more mature in university. But maybe Palin caught a lot of nativist abuse from Hawaiians, and is too gracious or politicall calculating to say so.
