<p>Anyone has ever met an American Indian? What would he/she say about “host” vs “guest”? This is my land.</p>
<p>TheGFG and hyeonjlee’s views are very much appreciated, both are good people. When you think harder, it’s not “host” vs “guest” but “majority” vs “minority”. If you look different, no matter how many generations you’ve been here, you are treated as a foreigner. That’s human. But, one great thing about this country is that many TheGFGs and hyeonjlees were willing to put Obama in the White House, to be the leader.</p>
<p>@kobudnik. I doubt Harvard wants anyone who does nothing but study all the time. The problem is that many people assume that if you are a good student you must have studied long hours. The truth of the matter is that a 1-hour work for a smart kid could be a 10-hour work for others. I suspect that a small fraction of the perfect SAT/ACT scorers didn’t practice much, and they are likely of any race, proportional to the population.</p>
