标题：　Obama: U-M, other schools should be able to use racial preference as
'shield against discrimination'

In 2003, following a Supreme Court ruling, the University of Michigan put an
end to its point-based undergraduate admission system that automatically
gave underrepresented minority students points based on their race.

It's a decision that's been upheld in courts despite protests from both
national and local civil rights groups.

In an interview with The New Yorker that was posted on its website Monday,
President Barack Obama said that he believes the Constitution permits the
use of racial preferences, though only within carefully defined limits. He
specifically mentioned U-M in making a point about the use of race during
the admittance process.

The practice of considering race should be allowed "If the University of
Michigan or California decides that there is a value in making sure that
folks with different experiences in a classroom will enhance the educational
experience of the students, and they do it in a careful way," Obama told
The New Yorker.

He continued: "Most of the time the law's principle job should be as a
shield against discrimination, as opposed to a sword to advance a social
agenda, because the law is a blunt instrument in these situations."

The Supreme Court ruled in 2003 that while Michigan universities could use
race as a factor in choosing which students to admit, they could not make
race the determining factor in deciding whether applicants are accepted.

"It's legitimate to say that when the government takes race into account it
should be subject to some oversight by the courts," he told the magazine.

Obama went on to say that he thinks the biggest issues concerning race are "
rooted in economics and the legacy of slavery," and that those issues are to
blame for the "vastly different" opportunities available for African-
Americans and whites.

"I understand, certainly sitting in this office, that probably the single
most important thing I could do for poor black kids is to make sure that
they're getting a good K-through-12 education," he said.

"And, if they're coming out of high school well prepared, then they'll be
able to compete for university slots and jobs. And that has more to do with
budgets and early-childhood education and stuff that needs to be legislated.
"

这个AA要取消，阻力重重，本来明明是违宪的事情，
但在种族隔离刚刚取消的年代，种族歧视非常严重，
采用AA也是没有办法的办法，属于合理不合法。
为了反制历史偏向，只好矫枉过正，
这些年来把AA告上法院的案子很多，
但最高法院采取一种装聋作哑的态度。装作看不见。

随着时间推移，种族歧视也越来越淡。
今天的AA就变得又不合理又不合法，
最高法院总有一天要正视这个问题。

当然是要从下往上push了，华人多打一些反对AA的诉讼，一层一层地把官司打上去。
第一个官司赢不了，第二个赢不了，一群官司一起来，最后就能赢了。

想想同性婚姻怎么合法的吧，去年十几个州，积累了十几个官司，同时都上诉到高院，
那个压力多大啊。有这个气势，不愁不能把AA扳回来。

光是坐在家里抱怨，等包青天为民伸冤，永远也等不来的。

华人受害最深。

黑人，拉丁是受益者，就算有个别明理的人反对，也没有动力去打头阵冲锋陷阵。

白人也受害，受害程度不如华人深，但是白人的维权意识比华人更强，历史上已有的AA官司都是白人打的，华人主打的官司我还没听说过。所以华人要加油，受害程度和维权力度不成正比。
