Again, those scholarships are for Americans of Italian, Polish, Irish, German, Lithuanian, etc descent; the majority of which will be White. Your point is pointless.
Just accept that you are wrong and that there ARE scholarships available for White people. Its OK to admit that you are wrong and move on with your day.
WRONG. You even admit "majority of which will be white". that doesn't mean ALL of which! The bill gates scholarship is COMPLETELY off limits to whites. If there is a black italian american, they qualify for the italian american scholarship.
are you suggesting only white people from poland, italy, have become US citizens or are descended? Ever heard of interracial couples? Black parent, Italian parent, makes child italian american. Sorry, deal.
Which would probably make him/her UNABLE to receive the scholarship.
Give me the percentage of BLACK IMMIGRANTS TO AMERICA from those countries you've listed.

Even if there is only ONE, it proves me right, and you wrong, because ZERO whites can apply for the Gates scholarship. Are you suggesting there is not one non white person from poland, Italy, Ireland, etc in the USA?
Not really. Look how they describe Justice sotomayor as the first hispanic justice, when it was Cardozo, a very long time ago.
According the the U.S. census 2010 Spaniards are now considered "Lationo/Hispanic". A lot of Cubans are also white ( Spanish immigration long time ago). I really think it is a broad word to describe somebody.
Not unhappy.
I said in my first post Gates is free to set it up how he wishes.
Pointing out the hypocrisy.
Then why did you go on and post what you posted? Obviously, it's bugging you. And I know you're NOT calling me a hypocrite! So I'm just going to fake like I didn't see that word.
The fact that he (or anyone) would feel the need to do this HAS to show that there is some imbalance going on somewhere.
Agreed or no?
It could, or it could mean that he wishes to appear to be as PC as possible. As I said it is perfectly acceptable to exclude whites but never acceptable to exclude a minority.
There are many examples of double standards.
For example imagine if an all white org named themselves "The Race"
Yet La Raca is acceptable?
Institutionalized racism or discrimination is no better than that of a private citizen.
Once again. Bill Gates in my mind can donate or spend his money as he sees fit. I just don't delude myself in believing that there is no double standard in play here.
You know me oh so well.
But I don't have to worry about it, I already have my scholarships in order. Thanks for playing..NEXT
I'm sure you'd still in front of the line...NEXT
