It is apparent that there are inherent biases in the selection of students into US colleges. Many admissions offices are more likely to accept a black person than a white person with the same credentials. I thought this was America, the land of equal opportunity.
America is no longer the land of opportunity, the cost to attend a University for one year exceeds the median income of American Workers. Notice I'm ignoring your racist OP.
The attacks on union workers and unions in general - lead by the Koch Brothers - has made the United States just one of many western democracies, though, we likely no longer qualify as a democracy since five members of the Supreme Court passed Citizens United v. FEC; that decision was the tipping point and we now live in a Plutocracy.
Wow great incite. Either write something meaningful next time or don't post anything at all. Why don't you do as your name implies and drift.
I answered your title of the thread most direct.
It's pretty simple.
The title of the thread was to attract attention. The actual content of this thread has very little to do with that seemingly racist question.

Well if the title is to bait and but you wanted something meaningful write the title as meaningful.
Kevin's points were my sentiments.

Then no one would comment on it.

Examples? Proof? Statistics? All I see here is a bunch of vague assertions and (what is clearly) an agenda against affirmative action.
Worrying about the cons of affirmative action - this day and age - is like getting upset about milk that spoiled after a nuclear bomb just went off a mile from your house.
And the title "should black people be allowed into college" is rather offensive.

As to the point, yes affirmitive action, if we limit our debate to it, is unfair. Giving preferential treatment to any specific group in admission to university or other things is patently unfair.
But then, so was kidnapping and slavery.
Nope. Harvard is extremely competitive and any little difference can be a deciding factor. If you tried the same experiment with the differing factor number of clubs, or a sport, or urban vs rural, or in state vs out of state, or any number of variables. Perhaps the two essays weren't that close.You want a statistic. One of my friends made two applications to Harvard. They were both identical, the same essays, resume, letters of recommendation and all. The only difference was that with one application he indicated that his race was black and the other he indicated white. He was accepted under the "black" application and rejected under the "white" application. Isn't this a little concerning?

Show us the applications as proof or just admit you're a lying troll.

Go piss up a rope, halfwit. You do not get to dictate how people post or respond to yours or anyone else's moronic premises.
Oh, and just so no one can accuse me of not addressing the topic...
Yes, they should.

I doubt harvard will accept him now that he's abused their application system. What a dumbass
Harvard needs to raise their standards a bit.
Should Black People be Allowed into College?
Yes.
Well, black people are allowed in college already. I'm guessing this will not end anytime soon.
Maybe Black people need to find the right books on science and technology and start self educating and say to hell with the education scam run by White folks and quit paying ad infinitum to have information dribbled out. Just take the science and say to hell with European culture.
It is so funny that double-entry accounting is 200 years older than Shakespeare but it is not mandatory for White kids in high school and now we bitch and moan about distribution of income. But then 45 years after the Moon landing economists with PhDs and Nobel prizes can't talk about the planned obsolescence or what Americans lose on depreciation of all of the crappy automobiles.
If a culture runs on lies then the educational system must propagate the approved disinformation.

You obviously don't know what is going on in the world around you. I'd advise taking some life skills or common sense classes at your local high school or community college.

Ok, seriously, does any new thought ever find its way into the vacant lot that passes for your mind? Ever? You have posted some variation on this same theme about 10,000,000,000,000,000 times now. Get some new material or STFU already.
