<p>Right, because EVERY white person is related to a state senator, and EVERY white person is rich beyond belief and loaded with unfathomable amounts of cash. I don't think getting points for ANYTHING you didn't achieve on your own is fair, whether it's connections or race.</p>

<p>I'm sorry, was that a question? I didn't see a question mark anywhere in it.</p>
<p>I never said anything about that sitation being true, but theoretically it would be the outcome, wouldn't it? I don't see how anyone can possibly argue against that. Let's say, factoring in relations to senators, that a white and a black kid each have 50 points. The black kids gets 2 points for doing nothing, and therefore comes out on top with 52. This could easily work the other way, like you said, the white kid could get 20 points for being related to a politician and come out on top. But that's not affirmitive action, so I have no idea how it's relevant. If the black kid were related to a senator too, he'd get 22 points, and still win.</p>
