"I may have gotten the only (Obama) handshake of the day for mentioning that my son is a Buff 'n' Blue (Punahou) student and that our family wished him the best of luck," writes Paul Samiere, shown above with Obama and Ganin Asao, Olomana Golf Links' head professional, who was in Obama's golf foursome. Adds Samiere, "This handshake speaks volumes to me about his character: 'Solid' and very much 'about the people.'"
