I want to add that if affirmative action should be done away with both black and white men would be able to get jobs that they can't get now since black women and white women come first because of the fool rule.
Employers would be able to actually hire who they want to, which is the way it should work in small businesses. When it comes to large corporations then I feel that each individual should be considered in a manner that removes all aspects of race/sex/ethnicity/etc. so that the person selected for the job is hired purely for their merit.
But hey, as long as I am dreaming maybe I can be 10 years younger, have the national debt paid off, and finally own that 1969 Camaro SS I always wanted.
Well they say small business run this country so do you think small business would give people a chance outside thier own race. All races included too. There are many minority small business owners.
you got somethin to say just spit it out dont make fun of how i write OK? i can teach you some things you cant learn on paper mr im better than you
But that is precisely the point when I asked you to define most qualified. Now you claim that you can teach me some things that can't be learned on paper and that may be true, but in the real world, an employer is going to look at your sentence and look at mine and deduce that you are an illiterate idiot, regardless of what you may or may not know that is relevant to the job in question. So, what determines qualifications?

Pretty much a gross over-simplification as job qualifications vary with job description.
No one answer would fit all.
Affirmative action is sanctioned racism, if it were to go away (as it should) people would be hired based on their qualifications and not their skin color. People wouldn't have to work with and take up the slack for people who couldn't have gotten their jobs without the help of this racist hiring practice.
I know math is rough for some people but I've never been able to understand why people can't understand that if group A makes up 70 percent of the population and group B makes up 15 you can't dictate that a company's employee list has to be 50/50 group A/B.

What kind of employer would hire someone based on informal web forum postings? Your attempted comparison is ignorant at best, try something that might actually make sense.
