Pahoated,
It would appear that you're either not comprehending what was written or you don't understand what you've expressed. Note the word "Native" used in both versions?
"The US federal government does not have the power to establish an Independent Hawaiian Nation within the State of Hawaii."
That is a fact pursuant to the U.S. Constitution and federal law.
Independent Hawaiian Nation means a Nation exercising its Sovereignty independently in matters of international trade, conflict etc. and all matters within its interior without foreign interference.
In the United States there is something called "Domestic Sovereignty" and no place in the United States is there a "Foreign Sovereignty" beyond the scope of foreign Consulates. The "Sovereign Nation" you note is one of "Domestic Sovereignty" similar to that of a "State" but limited by Congressional approvals for treaties domestically. Domestic Sovereignty has limitations under it's Supreme Sovereignty (The United States).
So... when we discuss a potential Hawaiian Nation within the context of the proposed forms of the Akaka Bill they are pursuant to recognizing "Domestic Sovereignty".
