I just don't approve of picking people based on their skin color.  If equality is what is sought, then the only thing that should be considered are qualifications.  That's how the system becomes equal.  People have to work harder to be the best qualified.  

I had a black major that came to work in my office.  Big chip on his shoulder.  It was clear to me that he had been passed along in his career because of his race.  He did not bond with the other military people in the office (which was a norm), did a half asses job and then when he got an honest performance report from me, he accused me of trying to end his career.  Some one should have done him that favor years before he got to me.  He was also a graduate of an historically black university.  He couldn't do the job he was assigned.
