Thanks to affirmative action, preferential admissions etc., we now, apparently, have a whole raft of individuals with PhD’s (piled higher & deeper) and/or high positions who, intellectually, may be rather mediocre.

A younger Sotomayor on tape rather glibly rationalizing her lower college entrance test scores due to “cultural bias” in those tests is not particularly credible.

When it comes to advancement through affirmative action measures, I’m with Clarence Thomas who has no use for such artificial devices.
