Lilly,Iknow there are many minority students who are first class scholars. However, if you have ever spent any time in school with affirmative action students,then you know that they are AAed academically in addition to admission and finance. I spent 30 years working with degreed minorities who could not pass an eighth grade final to get into high school. Many minority students are shepherded into 'African Studies Programs', such as the one founded by Esteemed Scholar,Henry 'Skip' Gates. There they can sign up for such scholastic pursuits as, 'Hip Hop and the Black Diaspora'. BO and His wife are both AA Babies from the GIT GO.

Was President Obama's comment Monday calling black rapper Kanye West "a jackass" prejudiced?

Obama was referring to West's actions during the MTV Video Music Awards Sunday when he jumped on stage, interrupted country singer Taylor Swift's acceptance speech and proclaimed that Beyonce had the best video. West apologized publicly on Jay Leno the next day and directly to Swift on Tuesday.

Hold on -- there has been no speculation that Obama's comment was due to racism or possible dislike...
