Ted, > America proudly proclaims itself the nation of immigrants but it doesn't want to foot to bill to get those immigrants onto equal footing with the rest of the population. The problem is that blacks aren't exactly immigrants. I expect Latinos to have a relatively high dropout rate, especially given how many of them are 1st generation "anchor babies," but blacks have been here for generations. You can point to a number of factors working against the black population, but when even Latinos are bypassing them on the road to the American Dream, that's when you know the problem is urgent.
