Political correctness causing things like affirmative action kill this country. like this Medical School Acceptance Rates, 2007-2009 By Mark J. Perry Here's a new chart with updated data from the Association of American Medical Colleges on medical school acceptance rates for Asians (data here), whites (data), Hispanics (data) and blacks (data) during the period 2007-2009, based on various combinations of MCAT scores (24-26 and 27-29) and GPAs (from 3.00 to 3.59). For example, for applicants with an MCAT score between 24-26 and a GPA between 3.00 and 3.19, only 1 out of every 25 Asian applicants was accepted, compared to about one out of every 11 white applicants, one of out every three Hispanics, and more than half of black applicants with those same credentials.

I've been hoping for years that we could turn it around before it reached the point of no return. But I think that you are right -- that we are past it -- especially in California. I began to accept that fact when Hussein Obama was actually elected. I didn't think that could happen -- right up to election day. I could not believe that there were enough Americans who would vote for him in light of all that we knew about him, his associations, his experience, his roots and his voting record. .
