Determining intelligence is a tricky thing...first of all to answer those who scream about affirmative action, scholarships, and preferences, the fact of the matter is that whites in our society receive more preferences than any other group...whites have always had affirmative action...it was called discrimination ...where whites only hired whites, did business with whites,and excluded everyone else...
In terms of scholarships, and school preferences, the amount of scholarships and preferences given to blacks in comparison to whites is laughable...whites are able to get into the best schools because dad went to that school or dad writes a big scheck to that particular school...also because dad knows the administrators of said school and so dad greases the way for his son...also whites attend feeder schools which are schools where Harvard, Yale, Princeton, etc choose most of their students from...schools which blacks are shut out from due to traditional discrimination or due to cost of attending
Meanwhile, the white kid who received a preference claims to have gotten in due to his "hard work" and condemns his school for giving a black kid a chance and calls it a preference...the facts are that blacks are made to attend inferior city schools which receive way less funding than suburban white schools...the education given to both is often uneven...but whites are in charge of all aspects of the educational system and also control all major institutions whether they be the judicial system, the federal government, the economic system, and everything else...so it's easy to pass judgment on those who you basically control...
Do all whites achieve such high status because they are all geniuses?..impossible..whites are over-represented in well-paying , high achieving jobs because of their connections and because of the preferences they receive due to their skin color... George W Bush and John Kerry got into thier wonderful colleges because of who they knew and because of who their fathers were...both were not good students..they actually both had D averages in college...Dan Quayle, who became vice president under Bush 1 was a D student also...but because they are white and rich and connected they got preferences...now look where they are today...powerful and rich... blacks and other minorities have no such connections and when they are given a break, everyone whines about it..maybe because it reminds whites of all the prefernces and breaks they get
Oftentimes many whites receive special tutoring which only they can afford in order to do well on tests....nobody talks about that....also believe it or not, education often does not matter in terms of how well people do their jobs...people learn on the job anyway...qualifications on most jobs are actually too high..also the funny thing about whites being upset with afirmative action and scholarships given to blacks is that these preferences were created by WHITES! It wasn't blacks who created these programs...and they were created because even whites had to admit that they engaged in discriminatory practices which effectively kept blacks and other minorities from being on an even playing field.
Lets face it...through all the crap about all men are created equal and so on, the fact is that whites created this system so that they would succeed...nothing wrong with that...it's human nature...but lets admit it and move on...it's so funny that whites are afraid of a black guy here and there who gets a preference even though blacks control only less than one half of one percent of the whole U.S. economy...a miniscule amount... This country was built on racism....pure and simple...
