Bob McDermott for US Senate

Decorated Military Service: Bob McDermott was a USMC Officer during the first gulf war. After spending 8 months in Saudi Arabia, he came home to Hawaii with his family, being honorably discharged after 8 years as a Marine.

Dedicated Family Man: After giving birth to their first three biological children while in the Corps, they adopted Joey, a nephew from an abusive situation. A few years later, they took in a baby boy who was exposed to methamphetamine in utero (Mata). Mata did so well so the social work asked if the McDermott’s would take in the balance of the sibling group, a full sister (also exposed to methamphetamine in utero) and a half-brother and half-sister. Bob and Utu eventually adopted the children and have been blessed many times over. They have 8 children now grown and healthy.

Experienced and Effective Elected Official: State Representative McDermott is a conservative who stopped an objectional sexual lifestyles program designed for 10-year-olds; this program violated parental rights and was medically inaccurate. Representative McDermott believes his work history, military service, family life and faith in God is the moral crucible which forms his political views.

Community Service a Family Affair: The McDermott family provides hope and help to all comers. The community knows that they can come to Rep. McDermott’s office, regardless of the issue, and he will help them. He never turns anyone away. Mrs. McDermott serves as the back door to her husband’s office, bringing issues to his attention that need to be fixed. They are a simple family, devoted to God, spiritually rich, with understanding and compassion while being true to their faith.
