People like you who typecast deserve no respect.
Your comments were pointless and without substance.

Schools do allow people in that are not deserving. No doubt about that. How in the heck did Kerry get in? He did not even have a 1200 SAT. THAT is dumb!

For legacies like the chimp, whose family has donated buildings on the campus, yes it is. Yale is hardly alone in the practice. If the Bush family had donated some buildings on the UT campus, I'm sure they would have accepted his application for Law School, and he never would have received less than "C". It's "affirmative action" for the rich, connected and lazy. If he wasn't a Bush, the chimp didn't even make the grades in Andover that would have allowed him in to Yale.
