HOW THE REAL ELITE SCAPEGOATS WHITES

Unfortunately, by mistake I just deleted this post from my blog and am now trying to reconstruct it.

 The Best New Argument for Affirmative Action

When calculating the Hispanic percentage of the population, do you include the 11 million invaders? Why aren't these illegals who just crossed the border with their stash at Harvard?
           The argument of this article is a bogus one. The reason many Blacks and Hispanics are not at top universities is that they should NOT be there. What have they learned, or failed to learn in their 12 years of schooling? Most cannot compete, and that is why the elite demand affirmative action. Without affirmative action there would be very few Blacks and Hispanics admitted to elite universities because, for whatever reasons, most are not prepared for such stiff competition.
The real losers with affirmative action are middle class whites.  The elite whites are not harmed by affirmative action.  Indeed, when they endorse it, they can win awards and praise from the media, academics, and the other millionaires of liberalism.
The Civil Rights Act of 1964 also forbid religious discrimination. At the elite universities, are Baptists overrepresented? I doubt it. Are Roman Catholics overrepresented? I doubt it. Are Jews overrepresented? A few years ago ALL the presidents of the Ivy League universities were Jewish.  Thus, 2% of the population produced 100% of the elite university chancellors.  Is that overrepresentation?

Instead of all the propaganda about white male privilege, one should look closer at the statistics to discover who is really privileged in America.  Yet, for some reason, the academedia complex ignore this most important aspect of the statistics of oppression.
