No doubt. That's why my wife ran away and my dog divorced me. I feel the same about you. <3
The obvious stated and replied to, then why don't you say what particular methods YOU would enact to make things more fair? By what specific criteria would YOU tell one student he's narrowly missed his dream, and another that he's got a path to his dream because of melanin?
Since affirmative action doesn't do this, it seems like a silly thing to wonder about. While Whitey fears reverse racism...as is the case with so many other fears like it, it's unfounded. Between equally qualified candidates, in education or on the job...the white guy gets it the crushing majority of the time. Affirmative action policies are the only thing that gets either category even close to representative of our demographics. Since that's the issue that affirmative action policies are enacted to remedy, it seems like they're a swell solution to that problem. This entire line of questioning is a tiresome exercise in sticking your head in the sand.
