Aloha Aina Party of Hawaii The Aloha Aina Party of Hawaii ( from Aloha ʻAina , love of land ) is a legally recognized political party of the state of Hawaii in the United States . A modern reincarnation of the Home Rule Party of Hawaii that was then led by Congressman Robert William Wilcox , the Aloha Aina Party of Hawaii was resurrected as a result of discontent of native Hawaiians with the call of Governor Benjamin J. Cayetano with the support of the Hawaii State Legislature to replace the Office of Hawaiian Affairs trustees as a result of a 2000 United States Supreme Court decision in Rice v . Cayetano . It was founded by dance teacher Vickie Holt Takamine , and was bolstered by a merger with former Honolulu mayor Frank Fasi 's Best Party of Hawaii .
