>With your support of University of Michigan's skin color entrance requirements, you clearly do not support what MLK fought for.

Do you even understand at all what black people in this country have been up against? In the last century, there have been thousands of towns that at one point or another during the century didn't allow black people at all within their borders, and thousands of neighborhoods within cities as well. Put that on top of slavery, the KKK, Jim Crow laws, etc, and you'll get why this country needs to do as many things possible to fix what's wrong with black America today. I have absolutely no problem with bending things in their favor every now and then. This entire country was stacked against them for most of its existence, and you're kidding yourself if you don't think black Americans have it harder than white Americans do these days.
