As Trump takes aim at affirmative action, let’s remember how Jared Kushner got into Harvard.
In 1998, according to sources familiar with the gift, the New York University alumnus [Charles Kushner] pledged $2.5 million to Harvard, to be paid in annual installments of $250,000. ... At the time of the pledge, Kushner’s older son, Jared, was starting the college admissions process at the Frisch School, a Jewish high school in Paramus, New Jersey. A senior in 1998-99, Jared was not in the school’s highest academic track in all courses, and his test scores were below Ivy League standards. Frisch officials were surprised when he applied to Harvard — and dismayed when he was admitted.
“There was no way anybody in the administrative office of the school thought he would on the merits get into Harvard,” a former school official told me. “His GPA did not warrant it, his SAT scores did not warrant it. We thought for sure, there was no way this was going to happen. Then, lo and behold, Jared was accepted. It was a little bit disappointing because there were at the time other kids we thought should really get in on the merits, and they did not” ...
... Margot Krebs, who was director of Frisch’s college preparatory program at the time, said, “Jared was certainly not anywhere near the top of his class. He had some very strong personal qualities. He’s a very charming young man with a great deal of poise, the sort of kid you would look at him and say, ‘This is a future politician.’ It was an unusual choice for Harvard to make.”

Kushner is not the only example of someone white getting into a college they were not qualified to enter.
Can you name a few of the more qualified blacks? How about just one?
Nope. Because you guys can't name one unqualified blacks who have gotten into Harvard over someone white who was more qualified. So why should I have to?
After all this has been all of you racists continuing argument. In damn near every thread.
First of all, go fuck yourself with a hot curling iron you lying jackass. Personally, I have never heard of Harvard admitting unqualified blacks over qualified whites. However I do know with 100% certitude that other schools have because they flat out admitted it during the lawsuit regarding the matter that went to the Supreme Court.
Furthermore, you made the claim that Kushner was admitted over more qualified blacks, therefore the burden of proof is on you to back it up. Are you really too stupid to comprehend something that simple? Why can't you think logically?
And the article you cite doesn't even give a source. Why doesn't raise a red flag in your mind? WTF is your major malfunction? Are you smoking dope or something?
Again, go fuck yourself with a hot curling iron to discourage yourself from breeding, you lying jackass.
