So, what do you think about Tiger Woods' name?

I think Tiger Woods' name has probably helped in golf, but I note that he is not know for his college degree or his success in the business world independent of his golfing prowess and fame. I do recall his attempts at "segregating" himself from the black community by referring to himself as "Cablanasian." My point all along is NOT that these kids are less able than others, only that their names create obstacles to their success, that must be overcome. I hope Ja'eisha succeeds. It benefits all of us when any of us succeeds. But if anyone thinks that seeing that name at the top of a resume will help in that success, I have to disagree.
