to act as though educatioal opportunities are evenly distributed across class and often racial lines is simply wrong.
opposition to programs on the order of affirmative action presuppose a "level playing field"
there isnt one.
if all that was at stake in this matter was skin color, then maybe the objections would have weight.
but since you have to blind yourself to see things in that truncated a manner, they dont have any weight.
