Okay, this is kinda late but- YAY DEMOCRATS! And IN YO FACE, WHITE UPPER CLASS MALES.

1.) Repeal on Affirmative Action? CHRIST ON A BICYCLE. People are so stupid, I swear.
2.) Lowering school funding. Oh, joy. Look, I know I'll be out of there in less than two years, but still. We fricking ration paper in art class. The

Not true, because okay. Colleges rely on standardized tests, right? And where do most minorites go to school? Inner city schools. Which schools are the worst schools to attend? Inner city schools. Which schools are the best? Public suburbian "white" schools. So, if inner city schools are the worst schools to go to and have the worst grade averages and the worst conditions, then they're going to have the worst standardized test results. It's not the fault of the students, its just that the conditions in their schools are awful. Hence, minorities end up with crappy test results, hence they don't get a chance to get into a good school, hence the need for affirmative action. A student could be BRILLIANT but not get into a good college because their schools weren't sufficient enough for their education needs. If there was a way to get kids into college without affirmative action, then that would be amazing. But for now, affirmative action is necessary and will have to suffice.

But some of those kids can't afford to transfer to a school like Stevenson...and they don't have bad grades because they do drugs and whatnot (well, some of them do) but it's because their classes are like freaking battlegrounds. It's really sad, actually...
