The proposal that the "race" accoiunts for this is nothing more or less than the notion that the "white gene" or "asian gene" also accounts for intelligence. Find me that gene.
Now...based upon this wonderful not-construct, which group gets my blisteringly high iq scores, and from which one of them did I inherit the race based smart gene? My maternal grandfather is full blown crow off the rez, maternal grandmother was born in ireland. My paternal grandfather was mixed, paternal grandmother was western european. You see my avatar up there, lookin white as a freshly bleached bedsheet. Two guesses as to which camp I;d get placed in, and your first guess doesn;t count.
I've got a whole lot of the lesser races blood in my veins, no asian, and a sparing amount of anything that a racist would consider caucasian.
-and for the coup de grace...let's ask a question above in the reverse.
Who gets my blisteringly -low- iq scores? What happened there, if I was two hairs away from handicapped? Did I fail to inherit the whiter genes despite the presence (and overwhelming expression) of whiteness in my background? Did I inherit those race based smart genes, but the other factors in my admixture nullified them? Just how effective is this gene?
