Quote:
Are we to ignore the entrenched status quo of legacy entitlements that
impede a meritocracy in this country? Affirmative Action has it's deficiencies,
but instead of bashing it, why not offer ideas to help to level the playing
field for minorities, women, and the "have nots" who do not have access to
the connections and inherited wealth that contributed so obviously to, for
example, Bush's "success".

It should be dropped, one human can be equally as poor as another human, race should have nothing to do with their opportunities for sucess. Goverment saying that human A gets more cookies because his great great great great grandfather had less cookies is flawed. I'm white and was a "have not" as much as the people of other races in my community, I was denied the same opportunities as them. Tell me that is just.
