[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Affirmative Action just got saved for another 5-10 years today. [/quote] I will vote Democratic in November, but I agree it is time for race-based affirmative action to fall. [b] I have no issue with SES-based affirmative action, which will benefit a lot minority kids anyway.[/b] But preferences based on race alone are constitutionally problematic and need to go. As President Obama has said, kids like his don't need affirmative action.[/quote] Since the children of poor whites score the same as the children of affluent blacks on the SAT, moving away from race based affirmative action to SES based affirmative action will significantly reduce the number of minority students in colleges.[/quote]
