Anyone who's been through the college application process knows that Blacks very frequently get an advantage in college admissions and scholarship awards.
Anybody that has been through college knows that children and grandchildren of alumni get an advantage in college admisssions.
Case in point George W. Bush Jr. admission to Yale. There is no way George W. Bush Jr. was academically qualified to attend Yale but when you grandfather is Prescott Bush a Yale alumnus, mulitimillionaire and formers U.S. Senator and your father is George H.W. Bush a prominent businessman and political figure.
And Obama has done nothing but make all those situations worse while starting additional wars and creating more debt. This is what happens when you elect an unqualified retard to clean up after a retard.
i havelinks and quotes of conservatives you have pics of hanging in your home that we should take charge in the conflict BECAUSE WE A AMERICANS( in a retarded womans voice)
Do people get-off or feel better about themselves by discussing whether black people have failed or not? I have the feeling that some that do talk about condescendingly about black people do get-off on doing such.
There are a large number of people in this country that derive a significant amount of their self-esteem based on the belief that their skin color somehow makes them in some way superior. I have spent significant portion of my life watching people such as this become surprised, bitter and in some cases downright angry when they found out that wasn't necessarily the case.
At whose expense though? Why punish people who have not treated others unfairly?
To balance things. Were you punished? I don't believe in affirmative action and I am Black. However, I do know that discrimination DOES still occur and there has to be some way to make sure people are not denied things because of their race.

Of course they get special rights and privileges.......But even with all this special treatment, they still have the highest percentage in jails/prisons, commit more crimes then non-blacks, have higher HIV infection rates, higher poverty rates (yet always have money for 22inch rims, weaves, Black and Milds and 40s), have the lowest test scores and higher drop out rates than any other race, higher out-of wedlock pregnancy rates and the list go on and on and on.
I say we take away all these "special treatments", because it obviously isn't working to improve their way of life.
The Democratic party is holding black people back, yet blacks don't understand this. Blacks are their own worse enemy because of their own expectations and actions. The relatively small percentage of blacks that understand this are able to advance and catch up. The others struggle because of their own ignorance, and not for any other reason.
My god, your statement is so condescending and insulting. Yet, your sentiments are common within the Republican Party. Let me tell you: That's no way to attract more blacks to the party. It sounds like you're saying blacks are too dumb to know what's good for them.
Who made you so superior? And why don't you believe that blacks can make good decisions for themselves?
I think whites have been getting "special rights and privileges" for several centuries.
Do you agree?
Please tell me of these special privileges so that I can start taking advantage of them. Thank you.
