that doesn't make sense; many hispanics are white, many hispanics are black.

If there's one group that has every right to complain is American born blacks....make it 2 (native Americans). I should've been born in Panama...oh well.

Obama did such a bang up great job. What does he care though as he trots off to Africa to the tune of $60 to $100 million. The middle class deserves what it gets for voting him back in.

Deep breathes.

OK. You ready?

Your less-than-stellar logistical skills are what lead you to this false dichotomy; that is, in order to affirm your belief that affirmative action is irrelevant, you elevate your standard of proof inaccurately. Clearly, the fact that whites run some institutions does not disprove the impact of affirmative action on the working class white man.
Could you expand on what exactly the impact affirmative action has on the working class white man?

I should make up a personal integrity index. So far this hits about 0 on the scale.
Just admit it, Aero Guy beat you like a rented mule. People like you do nothing but make the problem worse with your head in the sand stance and your stupid spin.
Until you can man up and admit your lies, this crap continues. But, maybe to you, its easier to lie than admit fault, with your hand stuck out waiting for your next welfare check.
You got beat, give it up.

Unless you're black, right? Then its a given right. Because slavery keeps them down, even 200 yrs later.
