With regard to the law school descision...unless the SC has decided to reverse the law against perpetuities, doesn't it imply that there has to come a time when the "goals" of a.a. have been met, and a.a. can be halted......when does this occur, and who decides it?..shouldn't we have "guidelines"?

If racial diversity is a compelling governmental interest, affirmative action can continue for as long as it is needed to achieve racial diversity. Which I take to mean forever.

I agree. When is affirmative action supposed to end? Reality is it will never end because it's prime tool for the Democrats to gin up racial and ethnic resentments. And how the heck did immigrants get covered by affirmative action? It's an outrage for someone to move here and get put to the head of the hiring line or university admissions.
