Friends,
With the election coming up, there is a proposal on the Michigan ballot.
I don't know the exact title or the wording. But it has to do with
eliminating quotas, or admissions or favorable inclusion on the basis of race,
national origin, sex, underwear size, et al. That everyone is on the same ground
regardless when these issues are decided.
This all started when a white student was denied admission to the
University of Michigan's Medical School while others with lesser grades and
admission scores were admitted.
The ads we're being bombarded with in the media will not directly use the
race card. They talk of woman's clinics being closed because they are for
woman only. (note: there goes my men's golf league)
I have always been put off when someone starts a conversation saying "I'm
not a bigot". But am I if I support this proposal? And do not support
those who passing this proposal would hurt? I seriously haven't made up my mind.
I've searched the internet for a non bias explanation and find none. But
I'll keep trying. And would appreciate any input.
Gale
