why America decided to take over panama
The Americans took over the Philippine's, Cuba, Puerto Rico and Guam, after the Spanish American war, which had no bases, these were Spanish Colonies, the last ones they had over almost 400 years, but the Monroe Doctrine, wanted America for the Americans, the ones who lived in the USA of course so they took these lands and made these countries part of the USA empire, as Panama was part of Colombia but since the Colombian Government did not allow the building of the Panama Canal, they invented a country that we now know as Panama, and of course that way the canal was built, as far as Hawaii is concerned they had trade with the Hawaiian king but when he wanted to raise the price of the Hawaiian goods the Americans took over.
That is the way of the brave and the free, yeah right.
If the Canal had been open, the commute between Cuba and the Philippines would have been easier.
The US gained Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philippines. Cuba was nominally independent but under US supervision.
They live in Panama.

what is the distance from panama canal to honolulu
The US, in its history was imperialistic. They annexed many lands into their "empire" (although the US government is not an empire). A few examples are Panama, Hawaii, Cuba, and the Philippines.
You can't drive to Hawaii
Not really; imperialism performed by the United States has benefited the economic interests of rich and old people, in detriment of American and foreign people equally.

Theadore Roosevelt. He decided to build the Panama Canal because it offered a faster route from the Atlantic to the Pacific ocean across the country of Panama which would save many people a lot of time and distance.
