Is the president right about this stating that this is what affirmative action amounts to more or less? I think he's dead on the money. In other countries the euphemism, affirmative action, is referred to positive discrimination. It certainly is a form of discrimination. More importantly I think it's tremendously demeaning in the way it's applied most of the time. There isn't a doubt in my mind that the gender groups and racial groups that "benefit" from affimative action are just as capable in the aggregate of achievement as those that affirmative action discriminates against.
