4th grade Diversity of perspective can be valuable to society, however perspective is largely determined by economic status, not skin color For example, underprivileged perspective would be better represented by a poor white person than a wealthy black person

With regards to Chief Justice Roberts, he has taken this same approach to voting rights; Playing the long game. When he was nominated by President Bush, Voting Rights Advocates sounded the alarm on his written opinions of the Voting Rights Act. Beltway insiders ignored them.

They took away the inequality of race based entry. I was denied entrance due to my race because not enough qualified preferd races were seeking entrance and they lowered the entrance requirements for them.

Trying to argue that stopping colleges discriminating on racial is bad, is an interesting new dynamic.
