What GF does not get is the difference between legacy and affirmative action admissions. All schools give deference to children of past graduates. So if one of your parents graduated from a specific school you will get deference in the admissions process. I have no problem with that because it only applies to one school and the parents paid their dues so to speak by attending that institution.

Affirmative action on the other hand basically allows unqualified students to get into any number of schools for no reason other than the color of their skin. And then once they are in the guilty white liberal profs will jolly them along because they have such low expectations for them other than hopefully being clean and articulate like 1800OTUS (ala Joe Biteme). And the result is we get the affirmative action president that has been a miserable, abject failure (unless of course his real goal was to destroy our economy and standing in the world) but was given a do over from his first miserable term leading to this second miserable term.
