The lands in question today is crown lands. These lands were leased out under King Kalakaua for thirty years,from 1890 to 1920 to Waiakea Sugar Company. In 1917,the Waiakea Sugar Company sold the lands as homestead. They had no authority because the leases were under common law under the 1840 constitution for the Hawaiian Kingdom. So, under common law it's very strict. They are only leasing the lands like everybody else's, over 2.2 million acres of crown and government lands was leased out for thirty years. Not to mention there was the Kuleana lands for ninety-nine years, which ended in the 1980s somewhere. So those lands are still in effect. You got some problems with those Kuleana lands too. So, the plantations were leasing the lands for—to plant sugar cane. That was all part of their scheme behind the colonization program, which started out under President Monroe 1820, when he sent over the missionary families to colonize his kingdom under the U.S. Constitution. It was the program was under the Northwest Ordinance of July seven—July 1787. That is a pre- constitutional. Constitution was adopted September 17, 1787. So, in the U.S. Constitution, Northwest Ordinance became article four, section three, clause one and two. And if you read article two, it says past tense one territory, Northwest Ordinance of Ohio River Valley Indian Reserve and other Indian lands that was stolen prior to September 17, 1787. There was no amendment to the Northwest Ordinance, no amendment to the U.S. Constitution to add any new lands, whether it be the Louisiana Purchase, purchase of California or taking over other lands, Philippines, Guam, Cuba, Virgin Isles. So, you can see the—the U.S. is doing things not under the U.S. Constitution. So, it raises constitutional questions, one Hawaiian Kingdom constitutional questions, the limits of the U.S. Constitution and the limits of the Northwest Ordinance, which has a history going back to the Revolutionary War and the Continental Congress. So, there's a lot of issues that this Board can address. Even the State Sup—State courts being that the State is covered under the Northwest Ordinance, they're illegitimate. The courts become illegitimate. They cannot answer all those questions. They cannot get into um, U.S. Supreme Court cannot even get into um because the U.S. Supreme Court is limited by the Constitution. They cannot go into the Declaration of Independence. They cannot go into the Northwest Ordinance, the Articles of Confederation. They only can deal with rules and regulation. WAN: One minute remaining. VICENTE: So,there's alot of constitutional questions that still out there. There's even the Queen's protest of January 17, 1893, against U.S. Minister Stevens. That has yet to go to the U.S. Supreme Court. Article three, section two, clause two. So, there's a lot of constitutional issues that—divided by jurisdiction or limited by jurisdiction. So that's very problematic, but we're here in the Hawaiian Kingdom. So, it's Hawaiian Kingdom jurisdiction that counts. The only other part is the U.S. gotta restrain itself by its own constitution, whether it be President Monroe or the missionary families or any other foreign nationals that aided the U.S. in colonization of this kingdom. And there's many. It's not only the Hawai—the—missionary families. The Japanese got involved—in 1893 by in agreement.
