I wish I could claim credit for the research and reasoning for that, but the credit goes to Bob Zelnick and his book, “Backfire: A Reporter's Look at Affirmative Action.” It, and his work on Algore are brilliant.

Secondly, I am not a greatly religious man, but this speaks to me about Associate Justices Scalia and Thomas’ beliefs about “Natural Law.”

Nature ordains a certain way of doing things. The students capeable of the best performance go to the best schools, people will obey a 30 MPH speed limit in a residential neighborhood, slavery is bad, etc.

The moment you try to manipulate that natural law concept with AA, a 20 mile an hour speed limit on a rural road, one man enslaving another under a color of law, you get into trouble every time.

It's not that we are Conservative so much as we are in favor of doing things the proven, smart way.

Be well

I like Zelnick, but the actual source he's relying on is Richard Sander: (Sander's web page)
