BREAKING NEWS – Oahu, Hawaii – A Honolulu City Council proposal to name a popular Oahu beach after the only Hawaii-born U.S. president, Barack Obama, has now been withdrawn. Council Chair Ernest Martin and co-sponsor Stanley Chang introduced a resolution last week to honor the commander-in-chief by renaming Sandy Beach Park as President Barack Obama Sandy Beach Park. Many of the President’s supporters as well as detractors in Honolulu rejected the idea, citing that renaming it would be an inaccurate representation of a beach because the waves are constantly and perpetually doing something, while President Obama doesn’t appear to have done anything.
