The McCain Kokua Campaign shows that John McCain's supporters in Hawaii want to make a positive difference! Instead of planning an expensive fund-raising event for their candidate, the Hawaii McCain Ohana is putting their community - not politics - first. What a wonderful way to make a difference!!
