US Presidency
1975

Here in the Pacific crossroads of Hawaii, we envision hope for a wider community of man. We see the promise of a unique republic which includes all the world's races. No other country has been so truly a free, multiracial society. Hawaii is a splendid example, a splendid showcase of America and exemplifies our destiny as a Pacific nation. America's Pacific heritage emerged from this remarkable State. I am proud to visit Hawaii the island star in the American firmament which radiates the universal magic of aloha. Let there flow from Hawaii- and from all of the States in our Union to all peoples, East and West, a new spirit of interchange to build human brotherhood. Thank you very much
