The theme for this year's Convention was: "Going Green", People/Economy/Awareness/Country/Environment (P.E.A.C.E).
We voted and determined the Democratic County Platform, amended rules, and proposed new resolutions. It was an active and lively group.
I was honored to escort, with former Mayor Kimo Apana, U.S. Congresswoman Mazie Hirono on to stage for her speech.
We were visited by many of our Democratic political leaders. Yet perhaps what was more exciting and invigorating to see, was the presence of so many interested District and Precinct community leaders. Being a member of the Democratic Party, I believe that one of the founding principles of the party is inclusiveness, and of course.....Democracy. To witness our community members come out in full force to express their opinions on the politics of Hawaii was refreshing indeed.with Representative Angus McKelvey (West Maui)
