It’s time for AA to expire. It’s a discriminatory practice, based on a presumptuous model, that blacks are incapable of, and inferior to, others. Nothing could be further from the truth. Black Americans, like any other Americans, can compete with the best there is. So yes, let’s end this discriminatory process which deludes their accomplishments.

If blacks and Hispanics are falling behind academically then it’s up to THEIR OWN community to rectify the situation (namely PARENTS) and not the government. BTW he is a registered pubbie to vote in the NYS primary.
