Native son: Hawaiians reflect on Obama's presidency

On his 55th birthday, President Barack Obama's approval ratings have returned to highs he last saw in 2013.

Mr Obama has remained an overwhelmingly popular figure in the island state.

Veteran political analyst Dan Boylan explains what impact Obama has had there and what's next for Hawaii politically.
