aloha all,
i'm less worried about illiteracy than i am about greed, corruption and lying. if she is a concerned representative, and has other's help her interpret matters that she may not be able to "read," then so be it.
and in regards to her appearance, lets not judge a book by it's cover. i'll take the stretch-pant wearing local with a kind heart, over the well-dressed, rude malahini any day.
i have a dear hawai'ian homesteader friend on the island of moloka'i who cannot read. somehow, amazingly, he can travel through airports, order meals, whatever, all without reading. i believe it is his "aloha," that makes up for anything others believe he is lacking. he has next to nothing, but would still give you half of what he has.
in light of all the kukae in our government today, i'll take a true representative of the peoples of hawai'i, over some other person, who will lie, cheat and steal their way to power, as some of our elected officials seem to do. regardless of political party, we need representatives who actually represent their constituents.
just my humble opinion.
aloha and and smile!
