A good amount of you are probably unemployed or working some shit job, yet you guys want to make claims that affirmative action help this girl get into all eight colleges.

"good enough" to fall into a threshold of acceptance given your race? Or good enough without laws to prop people up? Do you know what her grades and qualifications are? Not her grades. I'm sure they're pretty good. Good enough to get into all 8 Ivy Leages and Standford a long with exclusively several other African Americans?

Good enough to get into all 8 Ivy Leages and Standford a long with exclusively several other African Americans? And this has supposedly never been accomplished by a white person before? Pretty suspect.</quote> Oh did no white people get in this year? No I'm sure they did. So when a white person gets in it's all on merits. But if a black person gets in they took a white persons spot because of their skin color? And if you don't think that why are you upset with one black person being good enough to accomplish this?</quote> Not all eight. And that's what we're talking about. Why are you trying to construct a fictitious argument? The topic isn't about whether or not white people got into one or two Ivy Leagues. It's about whether or not it's probable for the obvious trend of people of color getting accepted into all of them without the assistance of affirmative action laws.</quote> How many black people got into all 8?</quote> If I answer the question, are you going to come up with another fictitious argument that doesn't relate to what is being discussed? The number is in the article I posted. Which are 'recent', as described by CNN.</quote> ... Copied to Clipboard!
