Ben Carson admits he LOVES affirmative action - That makes him a racist

But 75% of the Black population lives above the poverty level, thanks to AA. Without it, those who are qualified and have jobs or seeking qualification would be living in abject squalor with no hope...that isn't the case!

I don't know where you got that 75% figure but it's irrelevant anyway. Jobs should not be handed out based on skin color and thats what AA does. THINK
I don't know why you haven't run across that 75% figure in your "research." Try the Census Bureau, it might be an enlightening experience for you! The relevance is that AA most assuredly had some impact there!

While you are researching that, educate your self and discover what AA really does. It is not a quota system.
Race may be considered among a pool of qualified candidates but set asides and quotas are prohibited by law.
An employer dealing with a diverse clientele on the world stage might see a diverse workforce as the key to success. Either way, if that employer has no contractual obligations with the US government, he is free to hire whom he/she pleases without being subject to the provisions of AA in any form. No one is expected to hire unqualified individuals no matter what skin color. That would not make any financial sense.

What does make sense is having a pool of qualified individuals to choose from. Many times the white males in a specific labor pool are not the most qualified. Sometimes a woman, a Black or an Asian might have a set of qualifying assets or talents that may go beyond mere test scores. AA gets them to the interview so they can be seen and evaluated.

If they are talented , they will be seen and evaluated without some silly law.

And PS - of course there are quotas. If you own a company and enough minorities don't work for you, someone is knocking on the door accusing you of racism, ala Jesse Jackson and Silicon Valley right now, the fact that there aren't very many qualified candidates applying for the jobs is immaterial to them, they only care about how many minorities you have hired.

Talented Blacks are not always living in the locale where their talents are needed. Advertisements for that specific job may not appear in their local newspaper. The private sector employer, having some contractual government link, is obligated to find ways to encourage qualified minorities to apply for that job or jobs even if flyers have to be sent to other areas where potential black candidates may see them. That is one aspect of the law.

The law, however, is clear on the prohibition of quotas. Blacks may be under represented in a specific employer's workplace but he is in no way obligated to hire unqualified workers. His obligation is to make every reasonable effort to encourage QUALIFIED Blacks, women and other underrepresented citizens to apply. Once those prerequisites are met satisfactorily the employee need take no further action.
You simply cant convince low intellect whites that AA has no quotas. They need something to blame their lack of progress on now that qualified Black people are hired over non qualified whites.
True, and they rarely even bother to look at the actual law itself. Rather, they rely on the dual propaganda machines of Faux Noise and Rush Phlemglob.

Of course it's a quota system. The govt says it isn't and that is another of their brazen lies. AA is all about quotas and persecution of whites and special treatment for non-whites and hiring illiterates over qualified white applicants.

Affirmative action is now practiced by ALL companies in america. That's what the IRS scandal proved to america. If you displease obozo, as in refusing to hire unqualified black applicants, then the IRS is after you.

Now you're being illogical and silly. First of all, there are far too many people in Congress who think like you do. Believe it or not, they are part of the government. Your conspiracy theory also falls short when you fail to consider that any white man who even suspects he has been passed over for someone less qualified than he would allow that to go uncontested in a court of law.Many have gone to a lawyer only to find out they had no case;
 
Affirmative action has gotten so prevalent that many companies now refuse to list job openings in newspapers because they know the govt likes to send illiterate ex-con blacks out to apply for jobs. If the company says no, the DOJ is all over them. The DOJ knows even if they lose the case in court, the company will still be bankrupted by the legal fees.

Because the courts rewrote the "equal protection clause" of the 14th amendment so it does not apply to whites!!!! THINK
 
The wiki article on him has this quote

In 1999 Carson wrote:

"A lot of people, including myself, have benefitted from affirmative action...and have, in fact, taken advantage of the opportunity it afforded them. And I think that is the best possible reason for advocating the continuation of some program that allows minorities to have opportunities and improved access to mainstream America.

I would love to hear people engage in a very different conversation—on how we might maintain the benefits of affirmative action but change it and even call it something else. We have to be smart, you see. What I would like to call it is compassionate action."

Ben Carson - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

Like obozo, benji is a white-hating racist. You can't support affirmative action unless you're a racist. It is the govt mandated persecution of white people and the biggest hate crime in america.
Once again we see a Dumbocrat attacking an African-American. Everything here is a dog-whistle to scream "n*gger".

Liberals proving once again they are the party of racism.
 
That was 15 years ago. I would like to hear him now.
:thup:
Carson: We need compassionate action, not Affirmative Action





Oh can the "racist" crap and just admit Carson is not qualified and has no chance of being elected to anything.

No, don't try to make it about Obama either.

Just once, try addressing the real issue without playing the RW race card.

You lie so convincingly! Have you ever thought of publishing your fairy tales?

This whole frigging country is racist but at least the democrats have made an unprecedented gesture towards diversity. Blacks ARE mostly democrats so are you saying Blacks are racist against themselves? They aren't all that liberal but they are democrats
I disagree with your unsubstantiated claim that supporters of AA are racists. Whites promulgated it and were more instrumental in executing it. Its just plain stupid to say those white supporters are racists against whites because of AA. Bizarre.

NO! The court did NOT rewrite the 14th ammendment. They just interpreted it different in two similar cases: Gratz v. Bollinger and subsequently Grutter v. Bollinger. Both conflicting decisions were rendered in 2003 The 2003 rulings also abrogated theHopwood v. Texas ruling, thus permitting colleges in Texas and other states under the Fifth Circuit jurisdiction to reinstate affirmative action policies.

Finally, in Fischer vs he University of Texas, a 2013 decision by the USSC ,did not overturn AA but placed more stringent requirements for encouraging Blacks and minorities to enroll without using racial quotas as a criterion!

The USSC is top heavy with conservatives. Are you saying they are wrong? Not only that but the Court cannot rewrite law; that is the mission of Congress. The USSC just interprets it... You have to learn how government works if you want to debate about it!

Diversity means white genocide. THINK
Only in the minds of anti-social bigots. Isolation and homogeneity are more likely to corrupt the human gene pool and weaken the species as a whole!

make all the unfounded proclamations you like. No one (except negroes) is buying it. White people aren't THAT stupid.

Well, in any case it is part of the Constitution. You got a problem with that, sue them.

And you purport to be the spokesman for ALL White people? I think not... Only bigots and supremacists cling to archaic thoughts immersed in the preservation of something so superficial as race!
