Recent Achievements: 1. In the years 1990-91, I successfully negotiated an end to the Iraq War and secured President Saddam Hussein's agreement to withdraw from Kuwait in November 1990. During this time, the Bush administration continually said, publically, that Saddam refused to withdraw though that was not the case and our government illegally and criminally took our nation to war. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saddam_Hussein http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iraq_War Iraqi War Deaths (approximately 2,000,000): 1990-91 Approximately 500,000 Iraqi troop deaths and over 800,000 Iraqi civilian lives. Lancet studies: 654,965 through June 2006. US Troop War Deaths (4,000): 4,404 dead 2. In 1999, I was one of a few people behind the scenes who very adamantly insisted and pushed for the hiring of June Jones as the University of Hawaii's football head coach. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/June_Jones 3. In October 2008, I recruited Patrick Nicely, then the 17th best Quarterback in the nation, to come to Hawaii to play for the University of Hawaii and he agreed. Also included in this package for the University of Hawaii was the 14th and 24th best Wide Receivers in the nation and two offensive linemen ranked in the top 20 in the nation. Rivals.com said that if this materialized, I would be named as the top college football recruiter for 2009 and for me this is a matter of honor, great pride, and distinction! I hope that I am truly appreciated by the University of Hawaii, its President, Chancellor, Athletic Director, Head Football Coach, football players, and students.
