Styles like slack-key guitar are well-known worldwide, while Hawaiian-tinged music is a frequent part of Hollywood soundtracks.

The consolidated city-county was established in the city charter adopted in 1907 and accepted by the Legislature of the Territory of Hawaii.

Barack Obama citizenship conspiracy theories

Still others claimed that Obama was not a natural-born U.S. citizen because he was born a dual citizen (British and American).
