Looking at the way George Bush dealt with the whole hurricane disaster, do you like him as a president? I think he did a horrible job. I haven't done tons of research or anything but first of all it took him 5 days to get people food and water, and before he even stepped FOOT in new orleans. Remember the tsunami? He was helping out the very next DAY and he can't even do that in our own country. I was just watching the news and it was pissing me off when they showed a clip of him hugging some new orleans residents like he saved the day, so i had to make this poll.

^ im a minority who doesnt get financial aid cause my parents make enough, but ill argue for minorities here.
A lot of kids (mostly minorities, but im not gonna generalize) grow up in urban areas. They often have dysfunctional families. They also often have low incomes. Look at the flip side, many kids grow up in suburban or affluent areas with both parents and high incomes. Which school probably has the better teachers/materials/programs, the one in the hood or the one in the hills? What's wrong with giving a kid a chance when he's already been put at a disadvantage? (But at the same time I do tend to disagree with strict affirmative action/quotas...make em earn it, but don't give the rich/White kids an unfair advantage) |
